— Phony Obama Discrimination Lawsuits Still Lingering – Rachel Alexander (DIERSEN: According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs. Because all the jobs that I had were bad jobs, my superiors had a much harder time finding qualified minorities and qualified women who would take those bad jobs. 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.) )
https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2020/08/31/phony-obama-discrimination-lawsuits-still-lingering-n2575335
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There was no evidence of discrimination. No one came forward to complain. The lawsuits were solely based on statistics. They didn’t take into account legitimate reasons for the discrepancies. Fewer minorities and women may have applied for jobs. They may not have had as much experience or education. By forcing people artificially into boxes, opportunities that accommodate people’s different needs are eliminated. For example, a woman may want a job with fewer hours or flexible hours due to raising children. But these rigid categories eliminate the opportunity for her.)

ACCURACY IN ACADEMIA
— Wisconsin Lutheran caves, revokes invitation to Pence – Spencer Irvine (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who demonized, denigrated, and condemned those who I recruited to speak at TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois events 2005-2012. I would focus on my critics/opponents who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton’s West District, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County’s 4th District, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on present/past leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, TAPROOT, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter. I would focus on Republican candidates that have been on ballots in my precinct since 2000, their campaign consultants, their campaign managers, their staff, their volunteers, and their major donors. I would focus on those who I have sued.)
https://www.academia.org/wisconsin-lutheran-caves-revokes-invitation-to-pence/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Vice President Mike Pence was scheduled to speak at the commencement of Wisconsin Lutheran University this past weekend, but the private college revoked the invitation. The college, located in Milwaukee, announced that “after further review with careful consideration” it chose to “present a different speaker” instead of the vice president. The college announced that it replaced Pence with Rev. Mark Jeske of St. Marcus Lutheran Church. Jaske is the senior pastor at the Milwaukee-based Lutheran church and he has been with the church since 1980. Wisconsin Lutheran University initially fought back criticisms from alumni and current students about having Pence speak at commencement and said it was a nonpolitical event. The university noted that Pence’s service has come with “an unapologetic faith in Christ” and praised his advocacy “for the freedom of religious expression.” It added, “This event is not an endorsement of a political party, candidate, or a party’s platform.” But the university’s statement fell on deaf ears. The anti-Pence coalition wrote an open letter and claimed that Pence’s was part of “an incredibly divisive and controversial ticket” in an election year. They also claimed that it was “ignorant and deceptive” for the college to invite Pence without acknowledging the political implications. Wisconsin’s Democratic Party issued a statement critical of Pence and said, “It’s clear why Pence was disinvited from speaking at Wisconsin Lutheran’s College’s commencement: the Trump administration is focused on dividing, not uniting.” Neither the state Democratic Party nor the anti-Pence coalition acknowledged that the disinvitation controversy is an example of “cancel culture” and fails to live up to America’s long-held standard of tolerance. Cancel culture is the practice of withholding support and publicly shaming individuals over their political or moral views. None of Pence’s critics admitted that the Trump administration (and by extension, Pence) has advanced religious freedom protections for Christians and those of other faiths.)

CAMPUS REFORM

They would also want the following to be probed: a) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and c) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and a Forensic Accountant in 1997.)

PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Ever-increasingly, it is clear that the Democrat Party has declared a Second Civil War on America. Consequently, Americans are buying more and more and more firearms and ammunition for their self-defense. America will defeat the Democrats and win the Second Civil War. The soldiers in the Democrat Party’s army are citizens of foreign countries, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs who are anti-law enforcement, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual people, anti-married people, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-Christians, anti-Italian Americans, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders (except Joe Biden and Bill Clinton), and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 7. Assuming years of experience as a proxy for skill. Asking for unrealistic qualifications and relying more on the years of experience on the CV rather than skills (e.g. 10 years of experience for a close-to-junior position), Although I understand that in some markets strict requirements might be used preliminary to select the most interesting candidates, there really is no concrete reason to do so.” — Joel Cociani Take college degrees: If a four-year degree is required, why is it required? What does a degree prove? If you need a mechanical engineer, then a degree does indicate a certain level of knowledge. But if you need a customer service rep, requiring a degree may automatically exclude some potentially awesome people. The same is true with years of experience. Say you require “at least five years of experience in an accounting role.” What do those years of service indicate? Only that you’ve managed to hold accounting jobs for five years. Never use an experience or irrelevant qualifications as a proxy for an achievement. What matters is what people can do. Which means what matters is what they’ve done.)
