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.

BUSINESS INSIDER
— Accounting is a fast track to an upper-middle-class life. My not majoring in accounting at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970 was a tremendous career mistake. I wrongly thought that I could never pass the CPA examination. Even though I did not start taking graduate evening accounting courses until 1976, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. But by then, the accounting profession saw me as being far too old to have a successful career in accounting.
https://www.businessinsider.com/cpa-jobs-millennial-accounting-great-career-path-comfortable-life-2024-12
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Accounting classes were actually fun because what I was doing finally made sense. I enjoyed the material and liked my classmates. Since I switched my major after my freshman year, I caught up on the credits I’d need to eventually get a CPA license by taking extra classes over the summer and winter breaks. During my sophomore and junior years, I interned with a tax firm and a CPA firm doing bookkeeping and tax work. The internships were interesting and helpful. At bigger firms, interns might get assigned to scanning client documents and other repetitive tasks, but I worked at smaller firms and was able to see the majority of the tax process from start to finish. After I graduated with a B.S. in accounting in 2017, I took a job with a local CPA firm in Oklahoma City. . .I joined a national firm doing tax work in 2018. I got my CPA license the following year because the company paid for part of my testing fees. Getting a CPA license isn’t mandatory for accountants — I know plenty of accountants without licenses who’ve had successful careers — but it’s still considered the gold standard for accounting and I knew it’d help me move up in my career. Later that year, I job-hopped to another local CPA firm and worked in a client-facing position doing tax and accounting work. In 2021, I got a job with the federal government as an IRS agent. In May 2023, I left the IRS to join a different agency, where I still work, and the following month I launched my own CPA practice. . .Almost every time I job-hopped, I got around a 20% pay bump, a title increase, and a better work-life balance. I feel comfortable and happy with my life.)
FED WEEK
— Have you ever taken a pay cut? I did. I took a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors had made it clear that they would never promote me to GS-13, currently $117,807/year, even though I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I finally made GS-13 at GAO in 1986, but I would not have if I had not 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. I should write about my IRS and GAO coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me. They all were Democrats a) who had less wok 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 who were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran.
https://www.fedweek.com/retirement-financial-planning/my-federal-career-was-it-a-good-decision-to-leave-the-private-sector/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I began my federal career in 1985. My starting salary with a Master’s Degree was $21,804. I was taking a 12,000 dollar pay cut to begin my federal career. This 35 percent salary pay cut was mind-blowing. My friends and co-workers laughed at me and told me that it was a horrible mistake working for the government especially for such a large pay cut. My intuition told me that it was not a mistake and I was prepared to take a step backward in order to take a giant step forward. My vision of a federal career was that I saw growth and opportunity. The hospital continued to suffer with several other mergers and today it has been leveled to an empty parking lot.)

https://wirepoints.org/six-questions-gov-pritzker-should-have-been-asked-during-his-testimony-on-illinois-sanctuary-status-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. How do you justify spending more than $1.5 billion of Illinois taxpayers’ dollars on healthcare for illegal immigrants when Chicago has the highest black poverty rate in the country among the nation’s biggest cities? . . . 2. How do you justify spending hundreds of millions, if not billions, on illegal, non-English-speaking children at Chicago Public Schools when the school district is already junk-rated, faces a billion-dollar deficit and has just 21% of black students able to read at grade level? . . . 3. How can you justify allowing illegals with violent criminal histories to come to our state when Chicago has led the country in total murders for 13 years in a row and had the highest murder rate among the nation’s 20 biggest cities in 2024? . . . 4. How do you justify the billions spent on illegal migrants when Illinoisans already pay the nation’s highest property taxes, the 2nd-highest gas taxes and the highest cell phone taxes. Kiplinger ranks Illinois third in the nation in its list of “least tax-friendly states for middle-class families.” . . . 5. How do you justify burdening Chicagoans with the billions in costs of caring for illegal migrants when the Chicago area is already struggling to grow its economy? The metro area’s real GDP has only grown 4% since you took office, the worst among the nation’s 15 biggest metro areas. . . 6. How do you justify allowing in tens of thousands of illegal migrants who will struggle to find work when Illinois’ unemployment rate was the nation’s 4th-highest in 2024 and Chicago’s black community is struggling with an unemployment rate of 12.3% – the highest among the nation’s 15 biggest cities?)
GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly stress that Americans ever-increasingly fail/refuse to take bad jobs. I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, etc. My critics/opponents did not have to take bad jobs. Their parents bought them cars, paid for their college expenses, and got them jobs. The bad jobs that I had enabled me to a) buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, b) buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, c) pay for my UIC expenses 1966-1968, d) buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, e) buy new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, f) pay for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, etc. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What did you do to qualify yourself for better paying jobs? I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree from NIU when I was 21 in 1970. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I earned four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Who did you have to compete against to get hired and promoted? I did not have to compete directly against illegals. But because of political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, I had to compete directly against Democrats, minorities, females, younger people, veterans, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, and those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time. All my coworkers who were promoted over me were many, most, if not virtually all of the aforesaid. They had less work experience than I 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. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How strongly do your critics/opponents despise/hate Trump? My critics/opponents have always been anti-Trump, if not Trump-haters. Since 2015, they have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being a Trump supporter. They had their operatives and their dupes a) gerrymander my precinct in 2015, b) end my role as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, and c) end my membership on the Illinois Republican Party Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024. They have ever-increasingly discouraged everyone from reading my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Of course, they stress that I share so many demographics with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, married, non-poor, draft avoider, Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— According to Democrat and RINO leaders, if those who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time do better than those who are not the aforesaid, it is because they have benefitted from discrimination against those who are not the aforesaid. I passed both the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. Only about 20% who take the examinations can say that. In my defense, those who took the examinations with me shared many if not most of my demographics. That means, to be consistent, that according to Democrat and RINO leaders, I overcame tremendous competition. Further, I became a licensed CPA. Very few CPAs become licensed CPAs. Again, licensed CPAs share many if not most of my demographics. Again, that means, to be consistent, that according to Democrat and RINO leaders, I overcame tremendous competition. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Who wants you to pay more taxes? My critics/opponents have always wanted me to pay more taxes. They stress that I avoided the Vietnam War draft, that I was a federal employee for almost 30 years including almost 9 years working for IRS, that I paid less federal income tax by itemizing, that my wife had good jobs, that we gave up trying to have children, and that we saved lots for our retirement. I should write about my critics/opponents. – Dave Diersen

I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, etc.

— The Dark Side of Illegal Hiring – Some Employers Exploit. To get hired and promoted, I did not have to compete directly against illegals. But because of political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, I had to compete directly against Democrats, minorities, females, younger people, veterans, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, and those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time. All my coworkers who were promoted over me were many, most, if not virtually all of the aforesaid. They had less work experience than I 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.

— According to Democrat and RINO leaders, if those who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time do better than those who are not the aforesaid, it is because they have benefitted from discrimination against those who are not the aforesaid. I passed both the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. Only about 20% who take the examinations can say that. In my defense, those who took the examinations with me shared many if not most my demographics. That means, to be consistent, that according to Democrat and RINO leaders, I overcame tremendous competition. Further, I became a licensed CPA. Very few CPAs become licensed CPAs. Again, licensed CPAs share many if not most of my demographics. Again, that means, to be consistent, that according to Democrat and RINO leaders, I overcame tremendous competition.

In my defense, I paid 7% of my federal salary into the CSRS. In my defense, if my Democrat GAO superiors had not forced me to retire, I might still be working for GAO and paying into the CSRS. Constructively, so far, in today’s dollars, my Democrat GAO superiors have forced CSRS to pay me $1.85 million to stop me from working for GAO.

To break this down further, you’d need to earn about $66,178 per month, or about $15,272 per week, to be in the top 1% of income earners. . .Here’s how much you need to make to be in the top 5% and the top 10% in America: Top 5% income threshold: $352,773 Top 10% income threshold: $148,812 As you can see, earning just under $150,000 puts you in the top 10% of all wage earners in the U.S. This doesn’t put you in the elite class of top 1% earners, but you make more, on average, than 90% of American households.)

— Trump’s Trade School Trojan Horse. Were you viewed as being college material? I was not. Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. I washed dishes during my junior and senior years and the summer in between. But nevertheless, I took college preparatory courses, got an ACT score of 24, graduated in the upper 20% of my class, and got accepted by UIC. That enabled me to earn a bachelor’s degree, three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license.

Anticipate/expect that they will ever-increasingly a) implement the Democrat Party platform, b) drive out Republicans, and c) destroy your municipality, township, and county.

RAW STORY
— My critics/opponents want cheap labor. According to them I was always grossly overpaid. They remain furious that in today’s dollars, I earned a) $19.37/hour when I was 16, b) $55.850/year when I was 22, c) $68,315/year when I was 23, d) $82,655/year when I was 24, e) $99,069/year when I was 25, f) $112,280/year when I was 29, f) $117,807/year when I was 38, and g) $153,151/year when I was 49. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21, b) job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, c) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and d) a job-related professional license when I was 32. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents a) bought them cars, b) paid their college expenses, and/or c) got them jobs.

— Socialism. If my teachers had been Democrats, that is, if they had been socialists, they would have convinced me that my top priority to advance was not to earn job-related college degrees, professional certifications, or licenses, but instead to be Democrat, to vote for Democrat candidates, to promote the Democrat Party platform, and to help elect Democrat candidates.

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH PICTURE IN NAPERVILLE SUN: DuPage GOP to launch vote-by-mail pilot program to combat Democratic strides
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/06/12/dupage-naperville-republican-democrat-vote-mail/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To date, significantly more Democratic primary voters are on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, DuPage County Chief Deputy Clerk Adam Johnson. As of Wednesday, there was a total of 98,413 voters on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, according to Johnson. That number divides into voters who have opted to receive mail-ballots for general elections only and those who have requested to also receive primary ballots, he said. The latter is how the county can glean the partisan divide in its vote-by-mail program as voters must request either a Democratic or Republican primary ballot. Current numbers show that 47,110 Democratic primary voters have signed up for the program compared to 19,525 Republican voters, Johnson said. Those totals have also grown since the 2022 primary election, which was the first in which the permanent vote-by-mail program was offered. In 2022, there were 20,482 Democratic primary voters compared to 8,009 Republican voters.)

— Chicago’s Springfield delegation socks it to the city’s taxpayers with reckless pension bill. Who do you know who is in line to get a pension or is getting a pension? Ever-increasingly, they are demonized, denigrated, and condemned. I got in line for a Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension when I was 18 in 1966. I have been getting a CSRS pension since I was 49 in 1997. In my defense, I paid 7% of my federal salary into the CSRS. In my defense, if my Democrat GAO superiors had not forced me to retire, I might still be working for GAO and paying into the CSRS. Constructively, so far, in today’s dollars, my Democrat GAO superiors have forced CSRS to pay me $1.85 million to stop me from working for GAO.

— If ICE raids persist, there will be ‘nobody’ left to nanny the children and mow the lawns. If there had been as many illegals when I was young as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. I did yard work, delivered newspapers, washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, etc. My critics/opponents cannot say that. Their parents bought them cars, paid their college expenses, got them jobs, etc. I had to work my way through college. I should write about my critics/opponents.

— Overpaid? Did you read Money Magazine ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_(financial_website) )? If you read its February 1978 4-page article on me ( https://gopillinois.com/documents/ ), you would have concluded that the magazine did not pick me for the article to give me financial advice, but a) to foist negative government employee stereotypes on me, b) to paint me as being grossly overpaid, and c) to get IRS to disallow my education deductions. The article caused me many big problems, not the least of which was IRS’s disallowing my education deductions. Ever since the article was published, my critics/opponents have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. In February of 1978, I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years. I had been promoted in 1972, 1973, and 1974. In today’s dollars, my salary was $108,978/year. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I was taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul. I owned a one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building. I had rented out a town home in University Park since 1976 that I had bought new in 1972. I owned a 1972 Corvette that I bought new in 1971. My daily driver was a 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air.

I took and passed tests including the postal employment test in 1966 and the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. I earned a high school diploma in 1966, a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970, job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and a job-related professional license in 1981. But I did much more than that to get and keep jobs. I took jobs that my peers considered to be bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. I washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automotive assemble line 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.

— Bill would allow slavery legacy to be factor in college admissions. According to Democrat leaders, if you are White Republican, the longer that your ancestors have been in America, the more that you have benefitted from slavery, and therefore, the more reparations that you should pay. All my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s. In my defense, they always lived in northeast Illinois and they were always Republicans. They never were in a position to discriminate against anyone and they never did. Those whose ancestors were Democrats have benefitted most from slavery, and therefore, they should pay the most reparations.

— According to Trump’s critics/opponents, Trump is motivated by revenge. GAO audits IRS. According to my critics/opponents, revenge motivated me to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 and to ask to be assigned to audits of IRS. They stressed the adverse actions that IRS had taken against me including disallowing my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowing my education expenses in 1978, and never promoting me beyond GS-12. In my defense, I stressed that the many codes of conduct that I was under prohibited that. I became a CPA in 1979, Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, licensed CPA in 1981, and a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997.

— Did you read Money Magazine ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_(financial_website) )? If you read its February 1978 4-page article on me ( https://gopillinois.com/documents/ ), you would have concluded that the magazine did not pick me for the article to give me financial advice, but a) to foist negative government employee stereotypes on me, b) to paint me as being grossly overpaid, and c) to get IRS to disallow my education deductions. The article caused me many big problems, not the least of which was IRS’s disallowing my education deductions. Ever since the article was published, my critics/opponents have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years. I had been promoted in 1972, 1973, and 1974. In today’s dollars, my salary was $108,978/year. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I was taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul. I owned a one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building. I rented out a town home in University Park since 1976 that I had bought new in 1972. I owned a 1972 Corvette that I bought new in 1971. My daily driver was a 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air. – Dave Diersen

I had audited SEC and other federal financial industry regulators for the previous 8 years at the GS-13 Step 4-10 Levels, currently $129,588-$153,151/year. I had just earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. For that matter, IRS would have immediately offered me a job. I had audited IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division for 3 years at the GS-13 Step 1-3 Levels, currently $117,807-$125,675/year. 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. I became a Certified Forensic Accountant in 1997, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Fraud Examiner in 1990, Internal Auditor in 1981, and Public Accountant in 1979.

To get rid of me, my Democrat Post Office superiors disallowed my sick leave requests in 1968 and 1969 and forced me to resign in 1969. To get rid of me, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12. To get rid of me, my Democrat GAO superiors a) forced me to take a $23,472 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980, b) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, c) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, d) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, and e) forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997. In my defense, the codes of ethics that I have been under since 1979 prohibit me from holding grudges. I became a CPA in 1979 and a licensed CPA in 1981.

NEW YORK TIMES
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH GRAPHIC: The Democrats’ problems run deep, nearly everywhere. This is where voters shifted toward President Trump in each of the last three elections. I should write about the ever-increasing Democrat invasion of DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Warrenville School District 200, and my precinct since 1978. Because of that, ever-increasingly, leaders of the DuPage County Republican Central Committee and the Milton Township Republican Organization have moved to the left, that is, they have a) dumped more and more and more planks in the Republican Party platform and b) dumped more and more and more Republican Precinct Committeemen like me who support those planks.

BARRON’S
— A recently retired SEC attorney demonizes, denigrates, and condemns Trump. When GAO forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran, SEC would have immediately offered me a job. I had audited SEC and other federal financial industry regulators for the previous 8 years at the GS-13 Step 4-10 Levels, currently $129,588-$153,151/year. I had just earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. For that matter, IRS would have immediately offered me a job. I had audited IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division for 3 years at the GS-13 Step 1-3 Levels, currently $117,807-$125,675/year. 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. I became a Certified Forensic Accountant in 1997, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Fraud Examiner in 1990, Internal Auditor in 1981, and Public Accountant in 1979. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980 and in business in 1976.

ACCOUNTING TODAY
— DEI enters stealth mode; building the business case for DEI in accounting firms. The accounting profession would not have written me off as being too old if I had been a minority or a female. I did not start taking graduate accounting courses until I was 27. I did not pass the CPA examination on my first attempt until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31. I did not pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt until I was 32. I did not become a licensed CPA until I was 32.

CPA JOURNAL
— Why Are Students Not Choosing Accounting? I should have majored in accounting at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU in 1969 and 1970. I erroneously did not because I was not strong in math and I thought that because of that, I could not pass the CPA examination. But I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. But by then, because I was not a minority or female, the accounting profession wrote me off as being too old.

— From DEI to Meritocracy: The Federal Government’s Shift in Hiring Practices. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, of veteran who would take the job. My qualifications include a) passing the postal employment test and earning a high school diploma in 1966, b) passing the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, c) earning a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, d) earning job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and e) earning a job-related professional license in 1981.

— Did Harvard reject Donald Trump? Biographer claims it’s at the heart of the feud. Did you apply to Ivy League universities? I did not. According to my critics/opponents, degrees from non-Ivy League universities are worthless, that is, my 1997 IIT degree, my 1980 DePaul degree, my 1976 Loyola degree, and my 1970 NIU degree are worthless. I should write about my critics/opponents. They stress that my ACT score was only 24 and that I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class.

NDTV WORLD
— Democrat leaders hint/imply/argue/shout that Trump has a grudge against Harvard because it rejected him and/or his son. Since I was 19 years old in 1968, my Democrat superiors in the federal government have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I have a grudge against federal agencies because they took adverse actions against me. To get rid of me, my Democrat Post Office superiors disallowed my sick leave requests in 1968 and 1969 and forced me to resign in 1969. To get rid of me, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12. To get rid of me, my Democrat GAO superiors a) forced me to take a $23,472 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980, b) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, c) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, d) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, and e) forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997. In my defense, the codes of ethics that I have been under since 1979 prohibit me from holding grudges. I became a CPA in 1979 and a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997.
