(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kirkwood said he recently purchased Long Sing Restaurant, a Waukegan restaurant that has five video gambling machines. The purchase made Kirkwood a liquor license holder in the city of Waukegan, which means under state law, he must abstain from any votes on liquor-related issues, city attorney Bob Long said. State law previously outright banned all local elected officials from holding liquor licenses. Former aldermanic candidate Jack Dye, who ran unsuccessfully for alderman in the 6th War and had raised the issue in a Facebook post, said he would hope Kirkwood would also abstain from all votes related to gambling. He also pointed to the level of campaign spending tied to gambling interests in the last election.)

— St. Charles officials to debate recreational pot sales at Monday meeting – Lauren Rohr (DIERSEN: Hopefully, at the Wheaton City Council meeting this evening, others will again join me in again urging Wheaton to ban the sale of pot. At the meeting, will residents of Wheaton’s West District, or anyone else, urge the Wheaton City Council to select or to not select certain candidates to fill the West District City Council vacancy? At the meeting, the Wheaton City Council will go into closed session to discuss filling the vacancy.) 
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190819/st-charles-officials-to-debate-recreational-pot-sales-at-monday-meeting
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If the city wants to ban sales, the process will be straightforward, he said. But if they choose to allow sales, the proposed ordinances would have to go through the zoning process, which includes giving adequate notice to residents, holding a public hearing before the plan commission and additional approvals at the committee and city council levels. “Effectively, things need to be done by mid-November,” Koenen said. “It takes time to do it right.” Monday’s discussion is expected to take place during the government operations committee meeting, which is held after the 7 p.m. city council meeting at 2 E. Main St.)

COLUMBIA JOURNAL REVIEW
— How conservative media has grown under Trump – Howard Polskin (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents do not want the conservative media to grow. Ever-increasingly, they do everything that they can a) to stop me from putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out and b) to stop everyone from reading those emails. At the Milton Township Republican Central Committee Wednesday evening, August 14, 2019, at the Carol Stream Holiday Inn, after two of their nasty threatening operatives falsely charged me with harassing Carol Stream Holiday Inn employees, one of them in front of an extremely credible witness said that he was going to stop everyone from reading GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.)

— Rasmussen: New Poll Shows Voters Trust Political News About As Much As They Trust Wikipedia – Tim Hains (DIERSEN: No one should trust journalsts who deny that they have an agenda. I have an agenda. It is to defend and promote conservative and Republican principles.) 
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/08/18/rasmussen_new_poll_shows_voters_trust_national_political_media_about_the_same_as_they_trust_wikipedia.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Sunday on “Full Measure,” host Sharyl Attkisson discussed a new poll showing a plurality of Americans think political media is more biased than it was five years ago. She talks with pollster Scott Rasmussen, who said: “We asked about national political reporters, are they credible, are they reliable? And you know, a little more than one out of three people say yes. When we ask about Wikipedia, we get the exact same answer. So what’s happening is we have a world where people look at journalists like they look at Wikipedia. Gee, that’s an interesting fact. I better check it myself.” “The media has a huge credibility problem and it’s always had the problem,” he explained. “Oh, we talk about it differently today. Now we talk about it as a political bias. I think the issues have always been there. I mean, people were complaining about the bias of Walter Cronkite back in the 1960s.” He continued: “78% of voters say that what reporters do with political news is promote their agenda. They think they use incidents as props for their agenda rather than seeking accurately record what happened. Only 14% think that a journalist is actually reporting what happened… If a reporter found out something that would hurt their favorite candidate, only 36% of voters think that they would report that. “So voters are looking at them as a political activist, not as a source of information,” he concluded.)

NOQ REPORT
— Fake news really is the greatest threat to Republicans in 2020 – JD Rucker (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in the Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) unquestioningly believe anyone who levels any kind of charge against me, for example, they unquestioningly believe those MTRCC members who have charged me with harassing Carol Stream Holiday Inn employees. I am considering publishing cease and desist letters against those MTRCC members. Maybe I should just sue them.)

— Why thousands of Americans come together to hear Trump speak – Miranda Devine
https://nypost.com/2019/08/18/why-thousands-of-americans-come-together-to-hear-trump-speak/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Listen up, Trumpophobes. It’s not so hard to understand the president’s appeal. Try going to one of his rallies and, instead of turning up your nose at the Walmart people, listen and learn. The abuse of President Trump and his supporters that passes for analysis from his opponents is a strategic error. The more abuse, the more Trump’s base is energized to turn out on Election Day.)

https://www.nprillinois.org/post/londrigan-responds-fake-reporter-incident#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Betsy Dirksen Londrigan’s campaign called the incident “underhanded.” . . . Londrigan says the stunt was in poor form. “Congressman Davis likes to go on television and talk about civility in politics, all the while his campaign is again engaging in an ongoing series of dishonest distractions,” she said. Klitzing formerly worked on Governor Bruce Rauner’s campaign and served as the state Republican Party Director for a time. According to WCIA TV, Klitzing says he had received orders from higher-up campaign staffers. Davis campaign personnel have crashed Londrigan events before. “Congressman Davis’ field director showed up at one of my events drunk, and ended up getting arrested for assaulting people,” Londrigan said, recounting an incident from 2018. “It’s not the first time that somebody within the Davis campaign has behaved in this manner.” . . . When asked if her campaign is revisiting how it screens reporters for news conferences, Londrigan laughed and said it would be a “good idea.”)

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.)

— Elmhurst takes step toward adding traffic signal at York and Diversey intersection – Rachel Matuch (DIERSEN: During the early 1980s, I was part of a small group that successfully stopped Wheaton from putting up a traffic signal at the intersection of President and Harrison. I handed out 1,000 “Stop the Stop Light” post cards at the intersection that were addressed to the Wheaton City Council. Motorists signed, put a stamp on, and sent 400 of those post cards to the City Council. Ever since then, those who wanted that traffic signal have done everything that they can to destroy me. I should write a book about that.)

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/bernie-sanders-trump-is-a-racist
— Law enforcement, media changed standards for Trump – Byron York (DIERSEN: If you are a Trump-supporter, the more demographics that you share with Trump, a) the more likely that Trump-haters will accuse you of being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things and therefore, b) the more reason why you should always wear a body camera.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/columnists/byron-york-law-enforcement-media-changed-standards-for-trump
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the more unfortunate effects of the Trump-Russia investigation — and there have been many — is the weakening of traditional standards of argument and proof in the public debate over allegations that the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to fix the 2016 election. (Just for the record: It didn’t.) In particular, angry disputes about the president have done terrible harm to the principle that an investigator, be it a journalist or a prosecutor, should meet at least some standard of proof before leveling an accusation.)

— 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.)

Diersen-haters view the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall as being a “safe place” for them.) 
https://www.oflaherty-law.com/learn-about-law/defamation-in-illinois
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In this article, we will explain defamation law in Illinois. In order to state a cause of action for defamation in Illinois, the plaintiff must allege the following elements: ‍The defendant made a false statement about the plaintiff; ‍Made with actual malice or negligence; ‍That was published to a third party; ‍That damaged the plaintiff. ‍There are two types of defamation in Illinois, defamation per se and defamation per quod. Defamation per se consists of certain types of statements that the law considers to be automatically damaging and for which damages need not be proven. A statement that does not qualify as defamation per se is classified as defamation per quod. In defamation per quod cases, the plaintiff must prove actual monetary damages. The following types of statements qualify as defamation per se: statements accusing the plaintiff of a crime; statements asserting that the plaintiff has a “loathsome” communicable disease; statements asserting that the plaintiff is unable to perform in his or her employment or lacks integrity in his or her employment; statements that harm the plaintiff in his or her profession; and ‍statements accusing the plaintiff of adultery or fornication. ‍The statute of limitations for defamation actions is 1 year. ‍In Illinois there is no distinction between libel (written defamation) and slander (oral defamation). Many types of statements are privileged, meaning that the speaker will not be held accountable for defamation even if the elements of defamation would otherwise have been met. Privilege usually depends on the context in which the statement is made, such as statements made in a court of law.)
