HINSDALE PATCH
— Hinsdale Leader Warns Of Tent Cities. The Village Board opposes the state’s new crime law, particularly the trespassing and cash bail provisions. – David Giuliani
https://patch.com/illinois/hinsdale/hinsdale-leader-warns-tent-cities
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hinsdale’s village president on Tuesday raised the possibility of tent cities in local parks once a new crime law takes effect in January. He also said residents have threatened to shoot those trespassing on their properties. The Village Board voted to adopt a resolution denouncing the SAFE-T Act. The law bars police from arresting criminal trespassers in most cases and eliminates cash bail. With the trespassing change, Village President Tom Cauley said, “I guarantee you that we’re going to find ourselves with people just camped out in parks, and we cannot ask them to leave. They may be in your backyard or in your shed living there.” Currently, trespassing in the village may involve a tent city in a park, a drunk person yelling in a restaurant or someone screaming on a resident’s doorstep, Cauley said. But the village can take care of those issues with the threat of arrest, he said. Last week, he said, the village held a meeting about the new law with state Rep. Deanne Mazzochi, R-Elmhurst; DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick; about 45 residents. Three or four people, Cauley said, warned they may shoot those who criminally trespass on their properties. “That creates a whole lot of other issues for the village of Hinsdale. This has got to be changed. This cannot continue,” Cauley said. “I don’t want people to engage in self-help where they’re shooting people who happen to wander on their properties and are engaged in criminal trespass.” Cauley also argued the provision in the law eliminating cash bail provides too high of a standard for prosecutors to keep dangerous criminals in jail. Last month, DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin made the case to Hinsdale officials against the law, though he supported the general concept of doing away with cash bail. Cauley gave no indication in his speech that the village has sought to hear from supporters of the law. Last month, a Democratic state lawmaker defended the law to the La Grange Village Board. The Village Board voted unanimously for the resolution against the new law. The document acknowledged certain sections of the law, such as body camera requirements, were good policy. Trustee Matthew Posthuma was absent. Trustee Laurel Haarlow, who attended remotely, did not vote, apparently because of technical issues with her connection. Burr Ridge officials say they plan to pass a similar resolution later this month.)

Yesterday, using envelopes with a mailing label for each registered Republican voter, I finished delivering to all the homes in my precinct that have at least one registered Republican voter the following: a) campaign literature from the following Republican candidates: Salvi, Bailey/Trussell, Lewis, Sanguinetti, Eckhoff, Corrigan, Foltyniewicz, Schillerstrom, Elliott, Burke, Brennan, and Reidy; b) a marked sample ballot on 8.5X14-inch paper; and c) a Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) Voter Guide. I anxiously await the following candidates to provide MTRO with their campaign literature so that I can pick it up and deliver it: DeVore, Brady, Teresi, Demmer, Burau, Grant, Hart, and Henry. I disagree with political consultants and campaign managers who discourage/stop candidates from providing MTRO  with campaign literature that would be delivered along with other candidates’ campaign literature like I have done.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Marshall, R-Kansas, filed the Preventing Frivolous Actions by IRS Agents Act, which would allow taxpayers making less than $400,000 annually who were wrongly subjected to failed IRS audits or legal actions to collect compensation for costs associated with the audit or legal action. “Defending a frivolous audit is expensive and the IRS should pay the bill, not innocent Americans who were wrongly targeted by an overzealous federal accountant,” Marshall, a physician, said in a statement. . .The senator introduced another bill to force the IRS to sell off about $700,000 worth of ammunition. . .IRS Criminal Investigation is the sixth largest law enforcement agency in the U.S. . .IRS Criminal Investigation has 3,000 employees, and 2,100 are special agents, according to the IRS.

— For All Intents and Purposes, America Now Has No Southern Border – Virginia Allen (COMMENT: A country without borders is not a country. Ever-increasingly, Democrats are destroying America.)
https://www.dailysignal.com/2022/10/06/for-all-intents-and-purposes-america-now-has-no-southern-border/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Migrants seeking asylum cross the border, the Border Patrol picks them up. Agents take the migrants to a processing center where some basic information is taken down. Then they are put on a bus or an airplane to a city somewhere else in America. Illegal aliens are told to report to a local field office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, within 60 days. Some report back, but many do not for fear of deportation. After spending three days on the southern border talking with local leaders, citizens, and illegal aliens themselves, I was surprised by how much of a well-oiled machine illegal immigration has become. Because of the sheer number of illegal migrants coming across the border into the U.S.—the Border Patrol reports over 2 million encounters in fiscal year 2022, which ended Sept. 30—the Biden administration has created a well-functioning system to handle the influx. Illegal aliens know that under the policies of the Biden administration they likely can enter America and be released into the interior of the country. Illegal aliens who intentionally evade the Border Patrol—maybe because they are smuggling drugs or people, or because they have a criminal record—threaten the safety not only of those living in border towns, but Americans across the country. Border communities in Texas such as Kinney County and Val Verde feel the effects of illegal immigration daily. . .During my time in Texas, I saw firsthand that the border is wide open, and a nation without a border is hardly a nation at all. President Joe Biden should allow the Border Patrol to do its job and secure the southern border. Until homeland security officials take action to dissuade illegal aliens from coming across the border, millions more will come, further straining schools, hospitals, and communities across America. The United States is a nation of immigrants. But we will not be a nation at all if the immigration process isn’t followed legally and anyone, whether with good or bad intentions, can cross the border and melt into the interior.)

I selfishly used the money that I earned/saved doing yard work and delivering newspapers to selfishly buy a 1958 Chevrolet BelAir in 1964. I selfishly used that car to selfishly get to/from my Crete-Monee High School classes and to/from my part-time dish washing job in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights 1964-1966. I selfishly used the money that I earned/saved washing dishes to selfishly trade in that car for a new 1966 Pontiac Sprint in 1966 that I used to selfishly clean golf shoes, chip slag, pump gasoline, deliver mail, and get to/from classes at UIC 1966-1967. I selfishly sold that car and bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967. I selfishly sold that car and bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968. In my defense, during the late 1950s and early 1960s, I frequently rode around Crete in trucks helping collect newspapers and magazines for recycling.)

HR DRIVE
— EEOC: Employers cannot favor ‘early career’ hires over older candidates – Laurel Kalser (COMMENT: In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I was an “older candidate” when I transferred from IRS to GAO. Virtually all my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworker, and subordinates were “early career hires” a) who had little or no work experience when GAO hired them and b) who from the beginning, viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being as being far too old to have a successful GAO career. They viciously demonized, viciously denigrated, and viciously condemned a) the almost 9 years of work experience that I had gained by working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $88,229-$99,994/year, b) my having passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and my having earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. According to them, my having to suffer a $20,901 (21%) pay cut proved that my work experience, education, and professional certification were worthless. They succeeded in keeping me from being assigned to audits of IRS and from being promoted until 1986. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. To mitigate the aforesaid, a) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, b) I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and c) I became a licensed CPA in 1981. But the damage was done.)
