— Local Officials Mull Marijuana Legalization Impacts – Tom Robb (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? All of the following should be lining up to speak out against pot at public hearings: Republican activists, Republican candidates, Republican elected officials, Republican party leaders, Republican major donors, Republican political consultants, business leaders, religious leaders, healthcare leaders, education leaders, law enforcement leaders, etc.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Local municipal staffers and attorneys are scrambling to read and understand the 600-page bill legalizing recreational marijuana before its Jan. 1, 2020 effective date. The bill that passed in the Illinois House on the last day of the legislative session in Springfield, Friday, May 31, was passed by the Illinois Senate just two days before. Gov. J.B. Pritzker is expected to sign the bill, but marijuana remains illegal at the federal level. The bill gives some control to local municipalities, including creating zoning regulations and limiting dispensary options for operating, along with allowing for some new tax revenue for local communities. “First we have to read the law thoroughly,” Glenview Village President Jim Patterson said. “You can have one sentence (buried in the bill) throw it all away.” Patterson said he fully expects village trustees to consider and act on the bill by October, before it takes effect. Niles Village Manager Steve Vinezeano said a Tuesday, June 11 village board meeting has been scheduled for village staffers to present details about the bill to Niles trustees and discuss options. Vinezeano said 52 percent of Niles residents voted in a recent referendum in favor of the state legalizing recreational marijuana. “That doesn’t mean they want a dispensary down the block.” Vinezeano said firefighters, police, Family Services and community development officials all have concerns.)

— From loss to liberation: How Germans view celebrations of Allied victory over their Nazi ancestors – AP (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs are nasty. I should write a book about how my a) Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government used and b) how my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois use my 100% German national origin against me. They constantly foisted/foist negative German stereotypes on me. In my defense, I stress that they all my ancestors immigrated way back during the 1840s and 1850s, 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 if he had not been 4-F, my father would have fought the Germans during WWII. If DNA information had been available back when I worked for the federal government, I would have stressed that. 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.)
