— Here’s a challenge: Can you take a holiday from Trump-related news? – Jerry Davich (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents want you to always take a holiday from Trump-related news and from news related to the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Illinois Republican Party IRP platform and in the Republican National Committee (RNC) platform. According to them, Republicans would win in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton if the IRP and RNC would dump Trump, dump the aforesaid platform planks, and dump those like me who support the aforesaid planks.)

According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, all the jobs that I had were BAD. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have made it very clear that they would never have stooped to take the BAD jobs that I took.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/12/perez_blaming_the_messenger_rather_than_the_message.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What do the people at the DNC think of voters? I guess that they think that voters are too influenced by the messages from the pulpit or something like that. In other words, those priests and pastors are talking too much about protecting life or defending traditional marriage.)

— Wild Theories And Empty Seats At CPAC-Style Conference For The MAGA Set
https://hotair.com/headlines/archives/2018/12/wild-theories-empty-seats-cpac-style-conference-maga-set/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Rather than organize around belief in the tenets of conservatism — like free markets and traditional family values — American Priority seeks to united anyone who supports American nationalism and opposes establishment elites. In practice, this means supporters of President Donald Trump.)
REAL CLEAR POLITICS
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Michael Beckerman argues that the anti-conservatives who control the internet a) do not discriminate against conservatives and b) want conservatives to succeed. Beckerman should look into how the anti-conservatives who run the internet treat www.gopillinois.com, Dave Diersen, and his GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs who dominate the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and the Milton Township Republican Central Committee want the anti-conservatives who run the internet to shut me down completely.

Needless-to-say, because I have always been a Republican, I was always doomed to fail as federal employee. Nevertheless, a) I survived for almost 3 years at the Post Office 1966-1969, b) I survived for almost 9 years at IRS 1971-1980, c) I survived for almost 18 years at GAO 1980-1997, d) IRS promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and e) GAO promoted me in 1986.)

— Heather Nauert is the wrong choice for UN ambassador – HARRY J. KAZIANIS (DIERSEN: What do/did you have the right experience to do? For me, in 1980, when I was 31 years old, when I transferred from IRS to GAO, it was auditing IRS. GAO audits IRS. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $81,071-$91,880. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. But my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in stopping me from being assigned to audits of IRS until 1986. They treated assignments to audits of IRS to be “preferred assignments” that should only be given to GAO employees who were Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.)
