CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Detained Korean Hyundai workers had special skills. What special skills do/did you have? GAO audits IRS. I had a special skill to audit IRS’s Collection Division. I had worked for IRS’s Collection Division for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. I had passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. I had earned master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance. I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 in 1980. But my Democrat GAO superiors kept me off audits of IRS 1980-1985 and then 1989 until they forced me to retire in 1997. While they did let me work on audits of IRS 1986-1988, they were audits of IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division. Democrat IRS and GAO leaders do not want Republicans to audit IRS. Further, I had a special skill to audit federal financial industry regulators. I had worked for GAO on audits of federal financial industry regulators for 8 years 1990-1997 at the GS-13 Step 3-10 Levels, currently $125,661-$153,151/year. I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. Democrat federal financial industry leaders and GAO leaders do not want Republicans to audit federal financial industry regulators. My Democrat GAO superiors flushed down their toilets my aforesaid special skills when they forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— IT’S ON — AGAIN: Watch for petitions on the street for former state Sen. Darren Bailey as he gets closer to announcing a second run for governor, setting the stage for a potential rematch with Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker in 2026. Joining him on the GOP ticket will be Cook County Republican Chair Aaron Del Mar. It’s a strategic pivot for Bailey, who struggled to gain traction in the Chicago suburbs during his 2022 campaign. By aligning with Del Mar, a prominent figure in northern Illinois GOP circles, Bailey hopes to broaden his appeal and galvanize support beyond his downstate base. Bailey is already positioning himself around kitchen-table issues like public safety, property taxes and rising costs, he told KSDK’s Mark Maxwell in a recent interview. The GOP primary would pit Bailey — the most recognizable contender in the field — against a handful of Republicans who have already announced, including policy wonk Ted Dabrowski and DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick.

WASHINGTON POST
— Chief justice allows Trump to fire a Democratic FTC commissioner for now. The ruling comes after an appeals court last week found that Rebecca Slaughter could be reinstated because the president had fired her “without cause.” Of course, in Diersen v. GAO ( https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf ), my Democrat GAO superiors argued that they had done nothing to force me to retire. But they had told me that if I did not retire, they would demote me, give me adverse transfers, and take even bigger adverse actions against me. Previously, they had a) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, b) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, c) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I had worked for GAO, and d) forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980. They forced me to retire a) because I was an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) because my Black CPA subordinate talked and acted like he would leave GAO if GAO did not get rid of me. He had less work experience than I had. He had less education than I had. He had one professional certification while I had six. I was not a licensed CPA like I was. They gave him my job and my preferred corner office.
