GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— I urge all Wheaton residents who oppose the sale of recreational pot to speak during the public comment period at all Wheaton meetings against the sale of recreational pot in Wheaton. The next Wheaton meeting starts at 7:00 PM, Monday, August 26. I urge all DuPage County residents who oppose the sale of recreational pot to speak during the public comment period at all DuPage County meetings against the sale of recreational pot in the unincorporated areas of DuPage County. The next DuPage County meeting starts at 10:00 AM, Tuesday, August 27. At previous Wheaton City Council meetings, Bob Cherry, B. J. Slinger, Tim Whelan, and I have called for Wheaton to ban the sale of recreational pot in Wheaton. At previous DuPage County Board meetings, Dick Furstenau and I have called for DuPage County to ban the sale of recreational pot in the unincorporated areas of DuPage County. – Dave Diersen

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— At its regular meeting 10:00 AM, Tuesday, August 27, 2019, the DuPage County Board will have an “Informational Discussion of Cannabis as it Relates to Zoning Regulations.” During the public comment period at the start of the meeting, I will again urge DuPage County to be the first county in Illinois to ban the sale of pot in its unincorporated areas.

Because of me, and because of what I do for you as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor, “DuPage County Board Chairman and County Board Staff” have issued “DuPage County Media Guidelines.” SEE: https://www.dupageco.org/CountyBoard/Docs/61283/  Obviously, the guidelines were issued a) to paint me as not being a legitimate “media member,” b) to discourage/stop me from asserting that I am a “media member,” and c) to discourage/stop me from “lobbying or paid advertising, publicity or promotion work.”

What is the Daily Herald’s position on these guidelines? All Daily Herald employees constantly lobby for the Democrat, Libertarian, and/or Green party platforms.

I should write a book about those who have worked the hardest since 2000 a) to paint me as not being a legitimate “media member,” b) to discourage/stop me from asserting that I am a “media member,” and c) to discourage/stop me from “lobbying or paid advertising, publicity or promotion work.” I would focus on those who a) promote pot, b) reject planks in the Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform and work against those like me who support those planks, c) reject the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling and work against those like me who support that resolution, d) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, e) were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed, and/or f) are operatives or dupes for the aforesaid. – Dave Diersen
