ABC7
— Hegseth has asked Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George to retire immediately. DD: Have you been asked to retire? My Democrat GAO superiors were furious when I did not take their $25,000 buyout and early retirement “offer” when I was 45 in 1993. Their agency-wide “offer” was designed to help them get rid GAO employees like me who were conservative, Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and who they had not promoted to Senior Executive Service, currently $197,200/year. All my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government who my Democrat GAO superiors got rid of shared most if not virtually all of my demographics.

— Bondi’s ouster as Attorney General comes amid “exodus of talent” for federal prosecutors in Chicago. DD: As I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office 1980-1997, my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates had less and less and less talent. Fewer and fewer and fewer of them had job-related master’s degrees, job-related professional certifications, or a job-related professional license like I had. Ever-increasingly, they had less work experience. Ever-increasingly, to get hired, retained, and promoted, you had to not only be a Democrat, you had to be a minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. Consequently, my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates had less and less and less talent.

DAILY HERALD
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH PHOTO: Former Glendale Heights village president says he can’t get a fair trial in DuPage County. DD: I have watched DuPage County elected officials closely ever since I moved to DuPage County when I was 29 in 1978. To get votes from the Democrats who have ever-increasingly moved in, they have ever-increasingly welcomed them with open arms and painted themselves as being Democrat Lite. To get votes from Democrats, they have ever-increasingly given more preference to those who are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, unmarried, poor, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To get votes from Democrats, they have ever-increasingly dumped the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, ant-vice, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity planks in the Republican Party platform. To get votes from Democrats, they have ever-increasingly dumped conservatives like me.

DD: Are/were you in a traditional marriage? I have been since 1978. Yes, I have benefitted tremendously from our marriage, but so has my wife. To get more votes from those who are not married, Democrat leaders ever-increasingly promote LGBTQ and demonize, denigrate, and condemn traditional marriage and family. Those who are not married are far more likely to want/need/demand government assistance.

I would focus on my critics/opponents who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that we lied about wanting to have children and/or about what we did to have children. I would focus on my critics/opponents who have decried the most a) the time and cost needed to raise their children and/or b) their spouse having little or no income. I would focus on my critics/opponents who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that if we had children, a) I would not have been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, earn a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and become a licensed CPA when I was 32, etc. b) we would not have been able to suffer my $23,699/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO when I was 31, c) I would not have been promoted when I was 38, d) we would not have been able to have 915 Cove Court built in Wheaton when I was 35, e) my wife would not have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree in finance when she was 36, etc.

WASHINGTON POST
— DD: According to Democrat and RINO leaders, Republicans who are White and/or male have always and will always discriminate against minorities and against females. And because of that, Affirmative Action and DEI will always be needed. Democrat and RINO leaders have succeeded in getting just about everyone to blame Republicans who are White and/or male for all the problems that minorities and females have. Are you a minority and/or a female? On who/what do you blame your problems on? My critics/opponents who are minority and/or female blame their problems on Republicans who are White and/or male.

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Trump Ousts Attorney General Pam Bondi. At the Justice Department, Bondi tried to deliver on president’s priorities but ultimately failed to appease him. DD: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, they gave their Chicago field office managers lists of employees to get rid of who were conservative, Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. I was always at the top of those lists. The less success that managers had ousting those employees, the sooner that they were ousted. I would not have survived for almost 18 years or have gotten promoted in 1986 if I had not a) earned master’s degrees in business in 1976, accounting in 1980, and finance in 1997, b) earned professional certifications in accounting in 1979, internal auditing in 1981, fraud examination in 1990, government financial management in 1994, financial services auditing in 1996, and forensic accounting in 1997, and c) become a licensed CPA in 1981.

BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS
— 14.7 million people unemployed at some point in 2024. DD: Are/were you unemployed? I have been unemployed since I was 49 in 1997. But because of my Civil Service Retirement System pension, my wife’s income, our not having dependents, our Social Security, our retirement and other savings, and more recently, our inheritances, I have not had to take a job that was not appropriate for someone with my work experience, education, professional certifications, and professional license. I was unemployed briefly when I was 22 in 1971. My Firestone Store boss fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer because it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a) a job offer from IRS and b) a job offer from my Firestone Store boss to work part-time pumping gasoline.
