May 29 Morning Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Wheaton residents voice their concerns about Wheaton’s East Roosevelt Road Corridor Market Study/Comprehensive Plan Amendment – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

 (THE ARTICLE: 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.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans on Tuesday said they will likely provide “a handful” of votes to legalize marijuana now that a new amendment to SB 7 establishes a different path to expunge the records of those convicted of cannabis-related offenses — the governor’s pardon power. A week ago Republican leaders told The Daily Line no member of their caucus would vote for to the long-running effort to legalize marijuana.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Financial advisers and institutions typically counsel someone aim to have 70% to 80% of their pre-retirement paycheck. Another estimate is roughly 75%, according to T. Rowe Price, because living expenses go down, taxes will likely be reduced and there won’t be a need to put so much toward retirement savings anymore.)

That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS. What would Lipnic say about that? In 1997, when I was 49 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take their early retirement “offer” a) because I had been an active member in a class action lawsuit since 1988 when I was 40 years old that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) because I had always complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

BUSINESS NEWS DAILY
— How Can You Tell if a Job Candidate Is Lying About Their Credentials? – Adam C. Uzialko
https://www.businessnewsdaily.com/11314-background-check-candidate-credentials.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When employers don’t want to conduct candidate verification themselves or feel it would be better handled by a professional third party, there are background check services. These companies are available to screen candidates, usually for a per-candidate fee, and provide background check reports for the employer’s review. Background checks generally review criminal history at the federal and state level, as well as verify past employment and educational attainment. “Manual verification of job candidates, especially in high-volume situations, may be impractical,” Chancey said. “For best results, employers should consider partnering with a reliable background screening vendor. Look for a vendor whose screening platform is easy to use and takes out the hassle of verifying multiple candidates, integrates with other HR systems such as the applicant tracking system, and whose capabilities can be customized to the needs of your organization.”)

— DIERSEN HEADLINE: A Trump-hater says “President Trump an easy target for mockery.” Ever-increasingly, Trump-haters mock those who share Trump’s demographics. What demographics to you share with Trump? He and I are Protestant (I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran.), conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, old (I am 70.), married, healthy, homeowners, non-poor, gun owners, German Americans, draft avoiders, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. While Trump is a federal employee, I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and I have been a federal retiree for almost 22 years. Both Trump and I have been the subject of Money Magazine articles, albeit me only once in its February 1978 issue.

AMERICAN PROSPECT
— Pelosi Must Not Run Congress Like Trump Ran His Businesses Congress doesn’t have the resources right now to take on Trump, and Democrats aren’t fighting to acquire them. – DANIEL SCHUMAN (FROM THE ARTICLE: Congress is a shadow of itself. What this means in terms of personnel, for example, is House committee staff fell by one-third from 1994 to 2016, from 1,947 people to 1,298. Government Accountability Office staff fell by one-third, from 4,572 to 2,989.)
https://prospect.org/article/pelosi-must-not-run-congress-trump-ran-his-businesses
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A quarter-century ago, Newt Gingrich set out to destroy Congress as a force for progress, slashing the House’s funding by 14 percent and eviscerating its support agencies, like the Office of Technology Assessment, which drafted reports on emerging scientific and technological issues. In the last decade, House Republicans literally decimated funding for the House. Overall funding for the legislative branch is down by $370 million in constant dollars over the last decade alone, and funding for committees over that time has dropped by 22 percent—from $432 million to $329 million in constant dollars. Congress is a shadow of itself. What this means in terms of personnel, for example, is House committee staff fell by one-third from 1994 to 2016, from 1,947 people to 1,298. Government Accountability Office staff fell by one-third, from 4,572 to 2,989; and the Congressional Research Service fell by one-quarter, from 835 to 609. This is colloquially known as the lobotomization of Congress. The average expertise of and resources available to the rump of remaining staff have dropped precipitously, and few in power have any real experience governing. As if you couldn’t tell. To sum up, Congress is in no shape to take on Trump.)

They stress that while my peers were dying in Vietnam, I earned a bachelor’s degree in 1970 and then took graduate business courses. They stress that while my peers were dying in Vietnam, a) I earned almost 3 years of both Social Security (SS) and Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) credits while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, b) I earned SS credits while I worked for Firestone Stores 1970-1972, and c) I started earning more CSRS credits working for IRS in 1971.

— The Economy Is Strong. So Why Do So Many Americans Still Feel at Risk? The sunny job numbers and steady growth hide the fact that most people think the economy works only for people in power. – Jacob S.

— How the Rural-Urban Divide Became America’s Political Fault Line Such a conflict isn’t unique to the U.S., but the consequences are far-reaching here. – Emily Badger
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/21/upshot/america-political-divide-urban-rural.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the United States, where a party’s voters live matters immensely. That’s because most representatives are elected from single-member districts where the candidate with the most votes wins, as opposed to a system of proportional representation, as some democracies have. Democrats tend to be concentrated in cities and Republicans to be more spread out across suburbs and rural areas. The distribution of all of the precincts in the 2016 election shows that while many tilt heavily Democratic, fewer lean as far in the other direction. As a result, Democrats have overwhelming power to elect representatives in a relatively small number of districts — whether for state house seats, the State Senate or Congress — while Republicans have at least enough power to elect representatives in a larger number of districts. Republicans, in short, are more efficiently distributed in a system that rewards spreading voters across space. . .The median congressional district in America looks ideologically more Republican, Mr. Rodden finds (the median precinct in the chart also voted slightly Republican). And so Democrats have to find a way to win in those places, even as the progressive wing of the party is ascendant and lobbying for control of the party’s message. If Democrats hold on to some suburbs they recently flipped — a possibility as suburbia diversifies and as college-educated whites move toward the Democrats — Republicans could one day be as concentrated in rural areas as Democrats have been in cities. In that situation, one where Republicans pack their votes more tightly in rural America and the median suburban district becomes slightly Democratic, the urban party might actually start to benefit from geographic polarization. But there will still always be the Senate.)
