CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Here’s when marijuana will be legal in Illinois, and answers to other burning questions about recreational weed – Robert McCoppin (DIERSEN: Who is taking the lead to stop the sale of pot a) in your municipality and b) in the unincorporated areas of your county?

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Opponents warned of more addiction, mental impairment, and drugged-driving deaths. . .Who can ban it? Municipalities and counties may ban cannabis businesses within their boundaries, but may not ban individual possession. Any person, business or landlord may prohibit use on private property. Colleges and universities may continue to prohibit marijuana use.)
— As local high schools pull and reprint yearbooks, staffers take precautions against offensive photos, quotes – Darcel Rockett (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. High school students should be advised that sooner or later, their critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes can and will use everything that they can against them.)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Bernie Sanders: Trump ‘is a racist’ – Keith Koffler
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.)
