If/when this becomes law, please encourage your municipality to ASAP pass an “opt out” ordinance and zoning restrictions for growing.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— OUTSTANDING: Legal pot opponents reject Pritzker’s social equity arguments – Jessica Villagomez
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-illinois-recreational-marijuana-protest-20190506-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Opponents of legalizing recreational marijuana in Illinois on Monday rejected Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s argument that his proposal would promote social equity by providing potential benefits to communities that have been disproportionately affected by enforcement of lower-level drug crimes. “Minorities have said to me we don’t want this stuff in our neighborhood,” state Rep. Marty Moylan, D-Des Plaines, said at a news conference outside the Thompson Center in the Loop. “There’s other ways to generate revenue, not on the backs of our children and young adults.”)

— DCCC Chair Rep. Cheri Bustos defends backing incumbents as Rep. Dan Lipinski challenger Marie Newman gains major endorsements – Rick Pearson (DIERSEN: Concerning me, the following were not incumbent-friendly organizations: TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois in 2012, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce in 2011, Milton Township Republican Central Committee in 2010 and 2004, Illinois Center Right Coalition in 2007, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter in 2004, and GAO in 1997.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-cheri-bustos-democrat-incumbents-lipinski-newman-20190506-story.html
— FROM THE ARTICLE: Bustos has faced criticism from more progressive elements of the party for opposition to primary challenges and for a DCCC policy that also prohibits political advisers, consultants or vendors from doing work with the organization if they work against incumbents. “I don’t want to spend one ounce of any resource on keeping Democrats in the seats that they already have. I want to make sure that we have resources to pick up seats,” said Bustos, who called the DCCC “an incumbent-friendly organization.”)

That directly resulted in Oldsmobile withdrawing a job offer that I had accepted. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS.)

HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW
— No Partner, No Kids, No Problem (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, and RINOs are nasty. They used/use against me the fact that I did not get married until was 29, that my wife has always had income, that we gave up trying to have children, that we did not adopt, and that we did not become foster parents.) 
https://hbr.org/podcast/2019/05/no-partner-no-kids-no-problem
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If you aren’t married and don’t have kids, people at work might assume a lot of things: that you can stay late at the office, that you can’t possibly understand their stories about parenthood, that you just haven’t found the right partner (ugh). But those assumptions are often false. Single childless women have busy lives, close relationships with children like nieces or nephews — and many don’t want coupledom or motherhood. We talk to two women who’ve been researching and writing about being a single childless professional. The writer Shani Silver shares her experience with the career pros and cons, and then Tracy Dumas, a professor at Ohio State University, gives research-backed advice for responding to bias and unrealistic expectations.)

May 2 Morning Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The Republican Party exists to promote conservative principles; the Democrat Party exists to promote liberal principles; the Libertarian Party exists to promote libertarian principles; and the Green Party exists to promote green principles. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Illinois Republican Party (IRP) platform (https://illinois.gop/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/2016PlatformoftheIllinoisRepublicanParty.pdf) is conservative. The Republican Party platform (https://gop.com/platform/) is conservative. I served on the 2008 IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee. Disgustingly, outrageously, and unacceptably, the Republican Party, IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Central Committee let people hold leadership positions a) who reject many planks in the aforesaid platforms and b) focus on destroying those like me who support the aforesaid platforms. Most commonly, these Democrat Party plants, Libertarian Party plants, Green Party plants, and RINOs reject the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. From what I see, they are working very hard to fill the 2020 IRP State Convention Platform and Resolution Committee with members who will water down if not strike the aforesaid planks. I have asked my representative on the IRP State Central Committee to appoint me to the 2020 IRP State Convention Platform and Resolution Committee. – Dave Diersen

Overwhelmingly, they promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, Islam, abolition of the Second Amendment, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. Overwhelmingly, they are anti-Trump, anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/05/ignorance_fear_and_lgbtq.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mary and I met with several black relatives for dinner at a restaurant in Baltimore. The jovial conversation drifted to politics. I was stunned that they know nothing about several important political issues. Because they only watch mainstream media, my relatives are either misinformed or uninformed. For example,, my relatives have never heard of Sharia Law. When I explained the tyranny of Sharia and how leftists are promoting it in America, my relatives were shocked. Overwhelmed, a relative said, “I’ve heard enough. Can we change the subject?” The second thing that disturbed me was my relatives’ intense fear of pushing back against LGBTQ indoctrination that is impacting their lives. As I said, these are not political people. And yet, they know they had better not get caught opposing LGBTQ activists forcefully infiltrating every aspect of our lives; from public education to entertainment to Sunday morning worship.)

— A cautionary tale: Unfettered illegal immigration creates a failing nation – Paul H. Yarbrough
https://www.commdiginews.com/politics-2/a-cautionary-tale-unfettered-illegal-immigration-creates-a-failing-nation-117991/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We are a nation of immigrants” is a favorite aphorism of vote-seeking politicians. The saying reaches back to the 1870s. However, it is not true. So who cares? The pretense that we are all immigrants is babble. Words thrown about by the politicians to curry favor with some minority du jour. It is more “give me your vote,” and I will pay you with social safety nets.” Most politicians aren’t interested in the nonsensical twaddle about “give me your tired and your poor” as reflected on the Statue of Liberty. Maybe an update to the original should be “Welcome to New York, home of AOC and DeBlasio. If you think it was bad where you were, with until you start paying for NY Liberal policies.” This meaning that the taxpayer will provide the dollars necessary to provide immigrants – legal and illegal – with food, housing, medical care – those things bought and paid for by American taxes. Taxes squeezed from the citizens who may or may not want an influx of “the tired, huddled masses” seeking economic opportunity in the US.)

If they had more money, how would that have impacted you? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My father fought type 1 diabetes from age 14 and worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to help pay the family’s bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 years old and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy with almost no options. He died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21.)

DAILY HERALD
— Wheaton Bowl closing stirs memories for generations of families – Katlyn Smith (DIERSEN: In 2002, I succeeded in getting the Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) to hold its monthly meetings in the building’s Banquet Hall, and MTRCC has met there ever since. Since 1999, I have had the best record by far for attending MTRCC meetings and fundraisers. In addition, while I served on the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007, I succeeded in getting ICRC to hold many of its meetings there. I should write a book about what certain past and present MTRCC and ICRC leaders have said about me at MTRCC and ICRC meetings. In 2004, they crushed my bid to serve as MTRCC Treasurer. In 2006, they almost succeeded in getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. In 2007, they succeeded in throwing me off the ICRC Steering Committee. They hint/imply/argue/shout that my success in getting Wheaton to ban video gambling since 2009 has caused the Wheaton Bowl great financial harm.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Wheaton Bowl property has drawn some interest from developers of age-restricted housing and gas stations, but the 4-acre parcel is still for sale, Falbo said. The brokerage firm marketing the property, CBRE, is representing four shuttered Chicago area bowling centers that are up for sale, Falbo said. “It’s been a long time coming,” said Falbo, who lives near Glen Ellyn. “The business has just been slowly diminishing, and it just isn’t profitable anymore.”)

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.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— U.S. Rep. Sean Casten has high praise for fellow freshman Rep.

What are the following doing to get the best possible Republican candidate to run against and defeat Casten: Peter Roskam, Illinois Republican Party (IRP) National Committeeman and Committeewoman, IRP officers, 6th Congressional District IRP State Central Committee member, and 6th Congressional District Republican county and township organization officers?) 
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.)

QUAD CITIES ONLINE
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Scott Reader discusses reparations and racism. How much in reparations have you paid already? The more that you have paid the price of Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, and Inclusion, the more that you have paid reparations. Democrats use AA, Diversity, Inclusion, up-or-our, and budget cuts to make Republicans pay reparations. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $19,568 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

Constructively, if not officially, members of the following groups ARE PROTECTED: anti-Trump, anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders, and anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The first aspect of this warfare is simple. The government institutes programs that give special privileges to one group of people in the form of educational access and benefits, exclusive contracts with the government, quotas within the job market, and legal protections that are exclusive to those people. While many of these benefits are subtle, on multigenerational timelines they effectively destroy the unprotected group while ensuring the success of the protected group. In addition to this, there is the selective enforcement of laws and the absolution of some groups from many laws. However, the more important aspect of this warfare is the collusion of immigrants to exclude portions of the native population from the economy. This activity has two facets — exclusion from the market and denial of service.)

From what I see, because Trump is German American, the more German American that you are, the more that Trump-haters want to get rid of you once and for all. What if I had claimed Swedish ancestry? During the 1840s and 1850s, all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois from what is now Germany. Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me. In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F. Further, according to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece. What if I had claimed Swedish ancestry?)
