Griffin (DIERSEN: When will conservative and Republican groups organize to
battle Pritzker’s pot plan? From what I see, ever-increasingly, a) Libertarians

me. I should write a book about past and present Libertarian plants who
held/hold leadership positions in the Milton Township Republican Central

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Rahm ‘would welcome’ migrants Trump considers releasing to sanctuary cities
– AP (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, to “welcome” illegals is to illegally
encourage illegal immigration. Chicago Democrats have illegally done everything
that they can to get citizens of foreign countries to illegally come to America
illegally and to illegally stay in America illegally. If Trump sent 10,000,
50,000, 100,000, 500,000, 1,000,000+ illegals to Chicago, what would Chicago
Democrats do with them? I predict that those Chicago Democrats would soon
spread those illegals that they do not want across Illinois. How many unwanted illegals
would those Chicago Democrats send to your county, to your township, to your
municipality, to your precinct, and to your neighborhood? Of course, if they have
not done so already, the Democrats who run Illinois will give illegals the
right to vote. With votes from illegals, the Democrats who run Illinois will
get rid of even faster individuals, organizations, companies, and governments that
are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican,
American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft
avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long
time.) https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/donald-trump-releasing-detained-immigrants-ice-sanctuary-cities/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: Mayor
Rahm Emanuel said Chicago would “welcome these migrants with open arms,” in
response. “What President Trump fails to understand is that America is a
sanctuary country,” Emanuel said. “Small, medium and large cities across the
nation are suddenly and rapidly identifying as sanctuary cities because of the
abandonment of Americans values, ideals and cultural destiny under President
Trump’s watch.” The plan was panned by critics as an effort to use migrants as
pawns to go after political opponents. Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
calls the plan “disrespectful.”)

Illinois seems to creep toward full legalization of marijuana, it might be
useful to consider some of the experiences of states where it already has been
legalized. Washington and Colorado legalized recreational use in 2012. Oregon
followed suit in 2014. A marketing firm, DHM Research, surveyed users in those
three states. The results were reported in a national story, which ran earlier
in The Daily Journal. Here’s what to expect: • If marijuana is legalized, use
will increase. Those who use will up their consumption, in some cases moving
from weekend recreation to every day. Some 44 percent of the legal consumers
will use marijuana every day. • It is a male thing. Sixty percent of the users
are men. If you have concerns about the growing inequity of men moving on to
and graduating from college, this might give you pause. • Finally, and most
disturbing, about one in every four users will go to work high or get high at
work. We only can hope these people are not driving trucks, flying airplanes or
designing bridges. There is a solid social trend toward legalization.
Historically, society rotates those social ills it forgives and those it punishes
severely. States, too, greedily eye the taxes they might collect to feed their
bureaucracies. As we legalize, we also must regulate with common sense. There
might be, perhaps, no penalty at all for smoking marijuana in your home. Yet if
you choose to, say, jeopardize someone else’s life by being irresponsible, jail
time would be more than appropriate.)

— Why Are 2020 Democrats Embracing Slavery Reparations? – MATT MARGOLIS
(DIERSEN: The Democrats who run the federal government use Affirmative Action
(AA), Diversity, Inclusion, up-or-out, early retirement, etc. to get rid of
their employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they
did not promote to GS-13 (currently $98,198) by age 25, GS-14 (currently
$116,040) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $136,495) by age 35, and Senior Executive
Service (SES) (currently $165,500) by age 40. AA is reparations. Who has paid
the price of AA? Few, if any, of my critics/opponents, their operative, or
their dupes have paid the price of AA in any significant way. If I had been a
minority or a female, the federal government would have promoted me into its
SES long before I was 40 years old. However, because I am White, male,
non-veteran, someone who complained about political affiliation discrimination,
reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and someone who became an
active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse
discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, they took many adverse
actions against me including forcing me to take their early retirement
“offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.) https://pjmedia.com/trending/why-are-2020-democrats-embracing-slavery-reparations/ (FROM THE ARTICLE:
Spoiler alert, Senator Booker: It won’t solve any problems. It won’t satisfy anyone.
What exactly do proponents of slavery reparations believe that they will do
that affirmative action policies in education, employment, awarding of
government contracts, etc., etc. couldn’t? If the election of Barack Obama to
the highest office in the land (despite his radicalism and lack of
qualifications) wasn’t proof that we, as a nation, have moved far beyond the
days of slavery, then what will? A check? For how much? Will we finally be able
to put an end to affirmative action policies? Of course not, that’s not the
point.)

Another issue on her radar is marijuana. Gustin said she understands that
medically, marijuana is a good thing, but she has concerns about how it could
affect young people if used recreationally. Gustin said she’s worked with Kelly
in the past, and thinks he will be a great addition to city council. He “seems
ignited about the position and it’s exciting to have people who want to serve
and want to give of their time to keep Naperville such a wonderful place to
live,” she said.)

rich. 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, worked in the office
of a nasty chemical plant, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s

their burnt, overpriced coffee and minding your own business. Suddenly, a
complete stranger walks up and starts screaming at you because you’re wearing a
red baseball cap with a slogan popularized by the current president of the
United States. This angry woman, who you’ve never met in your life, calls you a
“Nazi” and a “racist” and claims you “hate brown
people.” She exhorts the rest of the coffee shop to rise up against you,
and follows you out to the parking lot to yell at you some more. Then, after
you escape, this complete stranger posts your picture on Facebook, vowing to
find out where you live and work so she can make you “feel as unsafe as
[you]
made every brown person [you] met today.” All because you were wearing
a hat she didn’t like. This actually happened in real life, earlier this week
in Palo Alto.)
