— Duke Law Journal Sent a Secret Memo to Minority Applicants Telling Them They’d Get Extra Points for Writing About Their Race. Memo offers a snapshot of how personal statements can be used to skirt affirmative action ban. Since the 1960s, Democrats and RINOs have used Affirmative Action and DEI to give preference to Democrats and to RINOs who are minority and/or female, that is, to discriminate against Republicans who are White and/or male.

In any event, GAO would not have forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980.

My Democrat superiors in federal government started using up-or-out against me when I was 25 years old in 1974 because they had not promoted me to GS-13, currently $117,807/year. I finally did make GS-13 in 1986, but not until after I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981. All my coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me were Democrats who a) had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had, and/or b) were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran.

— Democrat leaders ever-increasingly replace those who have demographics that vote for Republicans with those who have demographics that vote for Democrats. That is, Democrat leaders ever-increasingly replace those who are conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time with those who are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, poor, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. I should write about the success that Democrat leaders have had doing that in DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Warrenville School District 200, and my precinct. – Dave Diersen

— Did you have to work your way through college? I did. That harmed my GPA. I should write about my critics/opponents who have used my having to work my way through college against me the most. They stress a) that my ACT score was only 24, b) that I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class, c) that I got no scholarships, and d) that no Ivy League University would have accepted me. I would focus on my critics/opponents whose parents had lots of money, who bought them cars, who paid for their college expenses, and who got them jobs. Instead of studying, I worked far too many hours a) washing dishes during my junior and senior years in high school and b) delivering mail while to took classes at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU in 1969. – Dave Diersen

I had 25 years of CSRS service when I was 45 in 1993. That made me eligible for early retirement then. My Democrat GAO superiors wanted me to retire big time, but I survived for 4 years. I became a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. But, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” on September 30, 1997, the last day that it was available. If I had not taken it, I would not have been eligible to retire until I was 55 in 2003. They had made it extremely clear that that those 6 years would have been a living hell for me. They would demote me, give me adverse transfers, unfair performance expectations, unfair performance appraisals. etc. GAO was not unionized. I should write about the aforesaid. – Dave Diersen

AMAC
— At least seven U.S. professions have mandatory retirement ages, some as young as 57. To that end, should members of Congress have a mandatory retirement age? Constructively, if not literally, the mandatory retirement age is 55 and 30 years of service for federal employees in the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) who are Republican, White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. I had 25 years of CSRS service when I was 45 in 1993. That made me eligible for early retirement then. My Democrat GAO superiors wanted me to retire big time, but I survived for 4 years. I became a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. But, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” on September 30, 1997, the last day that it was available. If I had not taken it, I would not have been eligible to retire until I was 55 in 2003. They had made it extremely clear that that those 6 years would have been a living hell for me. They would demote me, give me adverse transfers, unfair performance expectations, unfair performance appraisals. etc. GAO was not unionized. I should write about the aforesaid.

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— How I Lost My Career and Started Delivering Mail. No one expects to have to start over from the bottom rung at age 50. But when the pandemic struck, marketing professional Stephen Starring Grant rose to the challenge. (COMMENT: I worked for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969, part-time while I took classes at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU in 1969 and full-time during the summers of 1967, 1968, and 1969. My Democrat superiors forced me to resign in September of 1969 falsely arguing that I would not be available to work enough part-time hours. I was available every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, holiday, and every day that NIU was not in session. They would not have forced me to resign if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.)
https://www.wsj.com/lifestyle/careers/how-i-lost-my-career-and-started-delivering-mail-c238d934
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I was being laid off. My skill set was not particularly practical; I wasn’t a cardiologist or a plumber. My work in the two decades before the pandemic had a bunch of names—Brand Strategist, Marketing Consultant, Consumer Psychologist—but getting a new marketing job was going to be a near impossibility for the foreseeable future. It was certainly never going to happen before my health insurance ran out in a couple of weeks. Which was a problem, because a couple of months earlier I had been diagnosed with prostate cancer. My cancer was as benign as cancer gets, but what had seemed manageable, treatable, now loomed as an existential issue. Not to mention that I was a husband and a father of two teenage girls, who counted on me to keep them in the upper middle class. To get unemployment, I had to be actively searching for a new job. I would go on the Virginia Employment Commission website, find anything I was even remotely qualified for and apply. I lived in Blacksburg, the small town in far western Virginia where I’d grown up, but the jobs I’d find myself applying to were almost all in Northern Virginia. Locally, there was nothing. Except for a job as a part-time letter carrier with the U.S. Postal Service. It paid $18.50 an hour, and it came with healthcare on day one. The pay cut was eye-watering: I hadn’t worked a job at that wage level since my early 20s. But I would definitely enjoy working outdoors for a change—and independently. Some people give up after things happen to them. Others get back up, over and over again. We think of this as a strength, as grit, determination, willpower. This kind of toughness has always struck me as essential to the Appalachian character. If you get laid off or shot, or people yell at you and call you an idiot or tell you that you’ll never amount to a goddamned thing, don’t think about it. Just get back up and try again. After two weeks of training, I was assigned to fill in for the regular mailman on Rural Route 3, a monster 60 miles in length, with 724 deliveries. The whole middle section of the route, a long slide downhill to the river, was so remote that it received no cellphone service. I might as well have been delivering the mail in 1920 and not 2020. . .Did I believe I was a mailman? I was lousy at my job, still very stuck on how slow I was. I saw myself as a faker being chased by the clock. But I got better over the months to come. There were days when the mail was light and the weather good and delivering the mail was the best of all possible jobs, the work a joy, the solitude a gift. I knew I was never going to be great at it, in the way that I will never be an NFL quarterback or play electric guitar like Eddie Van Halen. I delivered the mail for a year before I found a new job in marketing, and the best grade I ever deserved was a solid B-/C+. Even with that I think my greatest accomplishment was not quitting. And yet, somewhere in those early months, change did come. Letter by letter I was learning. I got tougher. I became capable of delivering everything that I loaded into my truck in the morning. The economics of delivering the mail were unsentimental—paying for my mortgage and groceries cost more than I was bringing in. But out there on Route 3 the job became more than just a financial delaying tactic. I was inhabiting something real, feeling what it was like to be there for people. I had become a mailman.)

https://hoodline.com/2025/06/subcommittee-debates-potential-erosion-of-meritocracy-by-dei-initiatives/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Recent discussions at a Subcommittee on Health Care and Financial Services hearing have sparked controversy over the impact and intention of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The critical focus of the hearing, titled “Sacrificing Excellence for Ideology: The Real Cost of DEI,” examined the assertion that these progressive policies potentially erode the foundation of meritocracy and individualism within several sectors, including education, government, and the workforce. According to a release by the subcommittee, members discussed possibilities of following former President Trump’s lead to foster what they view as genuine equality, based on individual effort and merit.)

— Trump admin takes action after massive fraud uncovered at agency (SBA) Dems tried to protect from DOGE. Democrats do not want Republicans to audit Democrats. GAO audits IRS. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors did not want me, a Republican, to audit IRS. I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980. 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 $99,069-$112,280/year. They succeeded in keeping off audits of IRS until 1986,that but then succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS after 1988 for the rest of my GAO employment. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I had become a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading in 1997. To keep me off audits of IRS, they hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I could not be objective auditing IRS because of the many big adverse actions that they had taken against me.

— The Social Security Administration said Thursday that it had hired Edward Coristine, the 19-year-old nicknamed “Big Balls” who the White House said earlier in the week had left the Trump administration. Coristine joined the Social Security Administration this week as a special government employee, a type of temporary position with relatively few disclosure obligations, the benefits agency said. What did you do when you were 19? I turned 19 in September of 1967. I lived with my parents and brother in Crete. I was a full-time UIC student. I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office. I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in December of 1967.

— Republican elected officials should reform government agencies. If Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it, DOGE would not be needed. If Gingrich had reformed GAO, I might still be a GAO employee. The Democrats who ran GAO during the 1980s and 1990s would not have wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. They would not have wasted what I learned working for GAO for almost 18 years and for IRS for almost 9 years before that. They would not have wasted what I learned earning six professional certifications and a professional license. They would not have wasted what I learned earning three master’s degrees. They would not have always ranked in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. They would not have delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They would have always assigned me to audits of IRS. They would not have forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. – Dave Diersen

On my mother’s side, they sharecropped a farm in Grant Park along the Indiana border.

— Trump seeks to ‘rightsize’ federal presence in D.C. If Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it, DOGE would not be needed. If Gingrich had reformed GAO, I might still be a GAO employee. The Democrats who ran GAO during the 1980s and 1990s would not have wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. They would not have wasted what I learned working for GAO for almost 18 years and for IRS for almost 9 years before that. They would not have wasted what I learned earning six professional certifications and a professional license. They would not have wasted what I learned earning three master’s degrees. They would not have always ranked in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. They would not have delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They would have always assigned me to audits of IRS. They would not have forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO.

(FROM THE POSTING: Vietnam veterans are generally treated with more respect and gratitude today than they were upon their initial return from the war. While some faced hostility and indifference initially, there’s been a significant shift in public perception and appreciation for their service. However, many Vietnam veterans still struggle with the long-term effects of their service, including PTSD and physical health issues related to Agent Orange exposure.)

CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
— No one wants bad jobs. Because all the jobs that I had were viewed as being bad jobs, all my superiors had a hard time recruiting and retaining qualified minorities and females. Because of Affirmative Action and DEI, qualified minorities and females could get better jobs elsewhere. Consequently, my superiors ever-increasingly a) lowered their hiring, retention, and promotion standards and b) gave their minority and female employees more preference. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless my job-related bachelor’s degree, my three job-related master’s degrees, my six job-related professional certifications, and my job-related professional license. It all culminated in my superiors replacing me with my Black subordinate when I was 49 years old in 1997. He had less work experience than I had, less education than I had, one professional certification while I had six, and no professional license like the one I had.

BROOKINGS
— Pathways to the Middle Class: Balancing Personal and Public Responsibilities. What were your circumstances at your birth? Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars and he died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother never attended high school. I had to and I did work my way through college. But according to my critics/opponents, I was able to earn a bachelor’s degree and three master’s degrees, earn six professional certifications, and earn a professional license because I benefitted tremendously from discrimination against those who do not share my demographics, that is, I benefitted tremendously from discrimination against minorities, females, younger people, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, and/or those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time.
https://www.brookings.edu/articles/pathways-to-the-middle-class-balancing-personal-and-public-responsibilities/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The defining narrative of the United States of America is that of a nation where everyone has an opportunity to achieve a better life. Americans believe that everyone should have the opportunity to succeed through talent, creativity, intelligence, and hard work, regardless of the circumstances of their birth.)

Big reasons to not support candidates in primary elections include that if the candidates that you support lose primary elections and/or if the candidates who win primary elections lose general elections, far too often, the losing candidates and the following will blame you for their loses: their major donors, fundraisers, political consultants, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers.

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrat leaders say that they stand with government employees. But Democrat leaders stand only with their government employees who are Democrat and minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. Because I was none of the aforesaid, no Democrat leader stood with me when Republican Gingrich gutted GAO during the 1980s and 1990s. Democrat leaders were overjoyed when my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire and replaced me in 1997 with my Democrat Black subordinate who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had one professional certification while I had six, and had no professional license like the one I had. It is called patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.
https://chicago.suntimes.com/other-views/2025/06/23/cook-county-public-servants-federal-government-purge
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The truth is, government doesn’t work without the professionals who show up every day to serve the public. Effectiveness depends on more than elected officials or public leaders. It requires the daily efforts of those working quietly behind the scenes. Their roles are rarely glamorous or celebrated, yet they perform them diligently because they believe in something bigger than themselves.

THE HILL
— The NextGen Bar Exam is DEI in action, dangerously lowering standards. Every time that Democrat and RINO leaders lower standards, my having done the following means more. I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. I became a licensed CPA. I earned four more job-related professional certifications. I earned three job-related master’s degrees. I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree.
https://thehill.com/opinion/education/5359119-the-nextgen-bar-exam-is-dei-in-action-dangerously-lowering-standards/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The American legal profession is in crisis, and the NextGen Bar Exam is the latest symptom of a disease that’s rapidly metastasizing: the abandonment of merit in favor of ideological box-checking. For decades, the bar exam was the last line of defense — a rigorous filter ensuring that only those with real legal chops could represent the public. Today, that filter is being shredded, sacrificed on the altar of equity and inclusion. The result? A collapse in standards, the death of meritocracy, and a profession on the brink of irrelevance. The NextGen Bar Exam, set to roll out in 2026, is not about modernizing legal education or making better lawyers. It is about making the exam easier to pass. Out go the demanding essays and complex legal analysis; in come more multiple-choice questions and “practical” scenarios that test little more than common sense and the ability to regurgitate buzzwords. The new mantra is “minimal competence,” a phrase so hollow as to be meaningless. The new system benefits neither clients, who deserve skilled and well-prepared advocates, nor the public, who depend on lawyers to guide them through a complex legal system. The only winners are bureaucrats and activists obsessed with “equity.” And even then, this is not to say that the new bar somehow guarantees equality of opportunity. Rather, it tries to force equality of outcome, no matter how much the universal bar must be lowered in the process. In truth, the NextGen Bar Exam is DEI ideology in action. By blaming the bar exam itself, rather than differences in preparation or effort, for unequal pass rates among various groups, the legal establishment has chosen to lower the standards until everyone passes. This is neither fairness nor justice, but the soft bigotry of low expectations, institutionalized. DEI has become a Trojan horse, smuggling mediocrity into the heart of the legal profession. Instead of demanding that all aspiring lawyers rise to meet high standards, the system now bends over backward to ensure that the standards themselves are erased. The message is clear: merit is out, identity is in. The legal profession was once a meritocracy. It didn’t matter where you came from or what you looked like — if you could master the law, you could make it. That’s what made American law great — it consisted of the best and brightest, tested and proven. Now, that ideal is being tossed aside. The NextGen Bar Exam is just the latest example, following major formatting changes to the LSAT to “reduce anxiety” and the proliferation of alternative “pathways” to licensure that bypass rigorous testing altogether. This isn’t just a legal education problem. It is a societal problem. When we stop rewarding excellence and start rewarding box-checking, we get a weaker, less competent, and less trustworthy profession. As a result, we end up with lawyers who lack essential skills in writing, reasoning, and effective advocacy, in turn, undermining the credibility of our justice system. If this trend continues, the outcome is inevitable: Clients will find themselves represented by lawyers who only managed to pass a watered-down exam. Our courts will be overwhelmed by incompetence, and the already fragile reputation of the legal profession will deteriorate further. Those who will suffer most are everyday Americans — people who need legal help, not just a participation trophy. The legal profession must wake up before it’s too late. Reform is acceptable and necessary when things are made better. But what’s happening now is not reform, it is surrender. Surrender to ideology and mediocrity. Surrender to the idea that the only way to achieve “equity” is to undermine true merit. The NextGen Bar Exam is a disaster in the making. It is time for lawyers, judges, educators, and the public to speak out and demand a return to merit, rigor, and excellence. The fate of the legal profession and the trust of those it serves now hang in the balance.)

— APRIL 3, 2015 FLASHBACK: Would the government have hired you in 1956? IRS offered me a job when I was 22 years old in 1971 because I had taken and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. IRS would have offered me the job sooner if I had been a veteran.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/federal-eye/wp/2015/04/03/would-the-government-have-hired-you-in-1956/
(FROM TRHE ARTICLE: The old civil service exam was introduced in 1955, a proctored, pencil-and-paper test that thousands of Americans took each year to get federal jobs. It was called the Federal Service Entrance Examination. A brochure called “Futures in the Federal Government” opened with these words: “Wanted: People of Promise” and urged Americans to take the exam. Starting salaries were listed at $4,040. The civil service exam is making a comeback. The old test was eventually thrown out after legal challenges found that it discriminated against minority groups, who did poorly.)

http://www.allgov.com/news/unusual-news/us-government-brings-back-civil-service-exams-after-34-year-gap-150407?news=856171
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Joining the federal workforce these days can involve doing something other federal workers haven’t had to do since the early 1980s: take a test. The federal government abolished the civil service exam in 1981 following multiple discrimination lawsuits that claimed the test was biased against minorities. But with so many people applying to become federal employees, some agencies decided to bring back the civil service exam, albeit in a much newer and modern format that tries to avoid being unfair to blacks and Hispanics. About 10% of would-be bureaucrats at three dozen government agencies—including the departments of Defense, Justice, and Health and Human Services—will take the USA Hire test that utilizes “animated avatars and videos to simulate challenges that could confront employees, testing their reasoning and problem-solving skills,” Lisa Rein wrote at The Washington Post. “Advances in technology allow the tests to scale questions; a correct answer leads to a harder question and an incorrect one ratchets down to an easier option. Scoring is instantaneous, an advance that can quickly winnow the pool of applicants,” Rein said. The test is designed to gauge an applicant’s general aptitude as well as teamwork, problem solving, judgment and specific job skills. Civil service exams originated in 1955 as the Federal Service Entrance Examination. At that time, starting salaries for federal employment were $4,040.)
