WGN9
— Police respond to rowdy ‘teen takeover’ at Glen Ellyn pool that prompted early closure.  Under the Democrats and under the RINOs, Glen Ellyn today, your municipality tomorrow.
https://wgntv.com/news/dupage-county/police-respond-to-rowdy-teen-takeover-at-glen-ellyn-pool-that-prompted-early-closure/
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  Police are investigating a large disturbance in Glen Ellyn after hundreds of teens swarmed Sunset Pool on Saturday, prompting the park district to shut the facility down early. According to the Glen Ellyn Police Department, officers were called to the pool, located in the 400 block of Fairview Avenue, just before 5 p.m. after reports of a crowd of teens, estimated to be between 200 and 300, began to gather. Police say many teens entered without paying, while some were reportedly smoking cannabis, drinking alcohol, and setting off fireworks. Parents who were at the pool with children told WGN-TV some teens were playing inappropriate music over loud portable speakers. Witnesses told WGN-TV the lines of young people waiting to get in were massive. Some individuals jumped a fence and opened a gate for others. The overwhelming crowd and unruly behavior caused staff to close the pool early. It took several police departments to help evacuate the park, police say. Video provided by bystanders shows the moment a pool manager was pushed into the lap pool. A young man can be seen helping her out of the water while others are seen laughing. John Horist, who had visited the pool earlier in the day, said the situation was out of character for the quiet west suburban community. “Glen Ellyn’s a really quiet town. I’ve been talking to the parents today and some of the kids too and they’re definitely kind of freaked out,” Horist said. A social media post encouraged followers to “bring 31st Beach to the burbs,” telling teens to gather at Centennial Beach in Naperville. Naperville police say officers were at the beach just in case, but no disturbance occurred. It’s unclear whether the incident at Sunset Pool was related to the teen takeover planned in Naperville.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A suburban community pool closed early over the Fourth of July weekend after unruly behavior erupted when a large crowd swarmed the area, police said. At approximately 5 p.m. on Saturday, Glen Ellyn police were informed of a growing crowd of teenagers and young people, estimated at between 200 and 300 people, at the Glen Ellyn Park District’s Sunset Pool along Fairview Avenue near Main Street. Some of those in attendance were seen entering without paying, smoking cannabis and consuming alcohol in violation of park district ordinances, police said. One person was charged for the illegal use of fireworks. The park district decided to close the pool early that day, because of the illegal behavior of several people in attendance, according to authorities. The incident remained under investigation as of Monday afternoon.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/20250707/news/glen-ellyn-police-teen-crowd-forces-sunset-pool-to-close-early/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One person has been charged with the illegal use of fireworks stemming from a large group of young people converging on a Glen Ellyn pool the day after the Fourth of July, authorities said Monday. Police were alerted shortly before 5 p.m. to a growing crowd of teenagers and young adults meeting at the Sunset Pool on Fairview Avenue. Officers estimated there were 200 to 300 people at the property, police said in a news release. Some of the attendees were seen entering without paying, smoking marijuana, consuming alcoholic beverages in violation of the park district’s ordinances, and igniting illegal fireworks. Due to the disruptive and unsafe behavior of several individuals at Sunset Pool — including violations of park district ordinances — the agency made the decision to close the facility early, park district Executive Director Dave Thommes said in a statement. “We worked closely with the Glen Ellyn Police Department and surrounding agencies to ensure the facility was safely cleared. We are grateful to our quick-thinking and professional Sunset Pool staff for how they handled the situation,” Thommes said in the statement. “The safety of our patrons and staff remains our top priority. We’re currently reviewing the incident internally and assessing any operational adjustments as needed,” he added. Officers from several neighboring jurisdictions helped to evacuate the park. The incident remains under investigation, and no other information was immediately available.)

When I was 40 years old in 1988, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. GAO audits IRS. They had unofficially thrown me off audits of IRS before I was 40 in 1988 because I had complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. They had kept me off audits of IRS 1980-1985. They had forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had hired me in 1980 and who had finally been able to assign me to audits of IRS and to promote me in 1986. They had delayed my promotions, never promoted me beyond GS-13, and forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. Democrats do not want Republicans to audit IRS.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Somewhere between 200 and 300 teens stormed Sunset Pool Saturday evening as part of what residents are calling a “teen takeover.” The incident took place around 5 p.m. Deputy Chief Kurt Vavra told Patch many of the teens went through the admission gate without buying entry and were drinking alcohol, lighting off fireworks and consuming cannabis. One teen was arrested for throwing a firework out of a car “in close proximity to pedestrians” and charged with disorderly conduct. The park closed early as a result of the incidents, Vavra said.)

ELMHURST PATCH
— Elmhurst Politico Seeks DuPage County Treasurer Office. She aims to continue DuPage’s trend toward electing Democrats.
https://patch.com/illinois/elmhurst/elmhurst-politico-seeks-county-office
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A DuPage County Board member from Elmhurst announced Monday that she was running for county treasurer next year. In a news release, Yeena Yoo, a Democrat, said she held a recent campaign kickoff event co-hosted by Democrat Deb Conroy, chairwoman of the County Board, and DuPage County Building Trades. Since 2006, Republican Gwen Henry has held the treasurer’s position. She won with 51 percent in 2022 and ran unopposed in 2018. In recent years, the once reliably Republican county has seen more of its offices move to the Democratic column. This reflects a suburban trend across the country. Yoo was elected to the County Board in 2022. A year earlier, Yoo finished second of four candidates in the Elmhurst City Council’s Ward 6 race, with Emily Bastedo winning. Yoo, a legal aid attorney, said she has advocated for low-income clients, veterans, senior citizens and working families. “DuPage families deserve a Treasurer who will put people over politics,” Yoo said in the news release. “My vision for the office includes innovation and community-centered leadership.” The Democratic and Republican primaries are March 17.)

https://www.newsweek.com/social-security-major-milestone-millions-2095851
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Social Security Administration (SSA) has confirmed it has completed sending payments to those who were impacted by the Social Security Fairness Act, five months ahead of schedule. Why It Matters  Under the Biden administration, the federal agency, which pays benefits to tens of millions every month, said the process of issuing new and backdated payments could take considerably longer. At the time, the SSA told Newsweek it was “determining the timelines for implementing this new law.” What To Know  In January, lawmakers passed a bipartisan bill that repealed two provisions—the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO)—that limited retirement benefits for certain workers, including teachers, firefighters, and police officers, some federal employees, and their spouses. The agency first started issuing these payments in February. The new payments included updated benefits amount and backdated payments to January 2024. Despite previous longer timelines being for implementation, the SSA has now confirmed it has sent out 3.1 million payments to those impacted by the repeal of the WEP and GPO. To date, over $17 billion in payments has been distributed. The WEP reduced Social Security benefits for individuals who received pensions from public-sector jobs—such as state or federal positions—that did not require paying Social Security payroll taxes. This reduction applied even if they also worked in jobs where they paid into Social Security and qualified for benefits. The GPO lowered spousal or survivor benefits for retired federal, state, or local government workers who had not contributed to Social Security through payroll taxes.)

Of course, they were furious about that. They took their anger/hatred against Republicans out on me. They forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. They gave me bad job assignments and unfair performance expectations and appraisals. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for them. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. They forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. I should write about the aforesaid.

— FROM THE ARTICLE: 46% of students decided to major in accounting after taking an accounting-related course, while 39% chose it before entering college. I should have majored in accounting. I did not start taking graduate accounting courses until I was 27. I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination until I was 32. I did not become a licensed CPA until I was 32. Long before then, the accounting profession saw me as being far too old to have a successful career in accounting. That would not have been the case if I had been a minority, female, and/or veteran.

I would focus on why they despise/hate me.

DAILY KOS
— Trump administration slaps high cost on federal workers’ free speech. I did far more than sign a letter of dissent. When I was 40 years old in 1988, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. GAO audits IRS. They had unofficially thrown me off audits of IRS before I was 40 in 1988 because I had complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. They had kept me off audits of IRS 1980-1985. They had forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had hired me in 1980 and who had finally been able to assign me to audits of IRS and to promote me in 1986. They had delayed my promotions, never promoted me beyond GS-13, and forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. Democrats do not want Republicans to audit IRS.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin might be very skilled at Making Coal Great Again, but he’s not so solid on the whole First Amendment thing. The EPA just put 144 people on administrative leave for signing a letter of dissent about the agency’s policies. It follows a March open letter where current and former EPA employees called both President Donald Trump and Zeldin out for their illegal dismantling of the core functions of the agency. However, the March letter was anonymous, and while some of the signatories of the more recent letter chose to remain anonymous, the 144 employees the EPA is now targeting signed the letter with their names and job titles. In placing the workers on leave, the EPA didn’t hide the ball as to why they were being suspended. An agency spokesperson plainly said they were suspended as retaliation for their speech. “The Environmental Protection Agency has a zero-tolerance policy for career bureaucrats unlawfully undermining, sabotaging, and undercutting the administration’s agenda as voted for by the great people of this country last November,” said a spokesperson for the agency. Here’s the thing. Government employees enjoy the protections of the First Amendment, even if the Trump administration doesn’t believe they should. Public employees are protected when speaking out about matters of public concern, which Zeldin’s hijacking of the EPA to, in his words, “drive a dagger through the heart of climate change religion” definitely is. There are a couple of caveats. If public employees are speaking in their official capacity about something that is normally part of their official job duties, then First Amendment protections don’t apply.)

Because Republicans are predominately conservative, White, male, older, married, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time, Democrat laws will harm them the most.

But neither of them 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. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college.

NATIONAL REVIEW
— A Real Affordability Agenda. What has helped you afford things? For me it was the money that I earned doing yard work, delivering newspapers, washing dishes, cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, pumping gasoline, delivering mail, working on an automotive assemble line, selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances, pumping more gasoline, collecting delinquent federal taxes, and auditing federal agencies. Since 1997, it has been my Civil Service Retirement System pension, and since 2010, Social Security. More recently, I have inherited some money.

— San Francisco’s ‘Equity’ Grading Would End Education. According to my critics/opponents, I did better academically than those who share their demographics because I benefited big time from discrimination against who share their demographics. My critics/opponent are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, 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. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college.

In 1993, when I was 45 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO used Gingrich budget cuts to “offer” $25,000 buyouts and early retirement to get rid of their older White male non-veteran employees who they had not promoted to GS-15, currently $163,749-$180,974/year. I was eligible because I had 25 years of federal service – 13 with GAO, 9 with IRS, and 3 with the Post Office. They succeeded in forcing me to retire in 1997 just before their “offer” expired. If I had not succumbed, I would not have been eligible for regular retirement until 2003.

https://www.dailyherald.com/20250704/crime/political-payback-deputys-lawsuit-alleges-he-was-demoted-for-backing-candidate/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A decorated Lake County sheriff’s deputy is suing his boss and the county’s top lawyer in federal court, alleging he was demoted for backing a candidate they opposed in last year’s election. Deputy Ari Briskman, a former sergeant, wants a return to his previous rank, as well as back pay and punitive damages from the lawsuit against Sheriff John Idleburg and State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart. Filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Chicago, the suit alleges Briskman was demoted the day after the Nov. 5 election, because he supported Republican Mary Cole for state’s attorney. Cole was hoping to unseat Rinehart, a fellow Democrat and political ally of the sheriff. Briskman also lost his special assignments, including as head of the sheriff’s Marine Unit that patrols area waterways, the suit states. His attorney, Keith L. Hunt, noted that the demotion meant not only a loss of rank, but a loss of substantial income. “To punish a man’s family simply because he didn’t support your buddy’s candidacy is wrong on every level,” Hunt told us. “It’s petty, it’s vindictive and it’s unconstitutional.” Idleburg and Rinehart gave us statements in response to the lawsuit. “The plaintiff, a current employee, has exercised his right to file a lawsuit,” Idleburg said. “We are confident in our actions and will respond through the proper legal channels.” “While we are unable to comment on this pending litigation, we look forward to fully prevailing in court,” said Rinehart.)

To punish me, they officially threw me off audits of IRS in late 1988, gave me a very bad job assignment, gave me very unfair performance expectations, gave me a very unfair performance appraisal, ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay for performance, and even worse things. I should write about the aforesaid.

— What will student loans look like after Trump’s spending bill is signed? Did you have to work your way through college? I did. My critics/opponents have always used that against me. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I had to work my way through college because my GPA was not high enough to get student loans let alone scholarships. I had only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. My ACT score was only 24. In my defense, my GPA was lower because of instead of studying, I had worked far too many hours during my junior and seniors washing dishes to earn money for UIC expenses and to buy a new car to get to/from UIC classes and my parents’ home in Crete.

MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTENIEL
— Oconomowoc Rotary reverses course after planning nonpolitical July 4 parade. My critics/opponents have always vehemently opposed Republican participation in Wheaton’s Independence Day parades. I should write about them. They have always had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who have had their operatives and their dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately.
https://www.jsonline.com/story/communities/west/2025/06/11/oconomowoc-rotary-reverses-course-nonpolitical-july-4-parade/84148448007/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: After intending to make this year’s Fourth of July parade a nonpolitical event, the Rotary Club of Oconomowoc reversed course after a local Republican state representative expressed outrage. The Rotary initially planned to have a parade without partisan messaging, with an opportunity for politicians to meet with constituents after the parade. In a June 11 statement, the Board of Directors clarified that all political parties and representatives may fully participate in the July 4 parade, “as has been our longstanding tradition.” In the original plan, politicians were encouraged to participate in three ways, the board said: Walking with the city’s official float, joining a community organization they’re involved in or creating a nonpolitical float with friends and family. The club also said politicians were welcome to gather at the Village Green after the parade for a “special moment of unity” featuring the University of Wisconsin Marching Band, which is still scheduled to occur. “Unfortunately, our intentions were widely misunderstood, and the proposed approach caused considerable frustration and concern within the community. We deeply regret that our message was not clear and led to any confusion or disappointment,” the statement read. The debate began June 9 when the club announced it planned to host a nonpolitical event, in part because the city is marking its 150th anniversary. A signup page for participants notes the parade isn’t hosting political acts this year, “but we look forward to inviting them for the 2026 parade.” “Our aim remains to create a universally enjoyable atmosphere where Oconomowoc’s legacy and community unity can shine brightly, unimpeded by partisan elements,” the club wrote on Facebook. The policy elicited split responses on Facebook, and the club limited comments after more than 350 responses. Some residents and conservative talk radio hosts decried exclusion of anyone from the parade, while others appreciated the Rotary’s decision and said political divisiveness would detract from the festivities. State Rep. Barbara Dittrich, a Republican who represents Oconomowoc in the state Assembly, called the Rotary’s decision “bewildering” in a June 10 statement and said it deliberately excluded state and federal elected officials. Dittrich argued her family “is a dedicated, ingrained part of Oconomowoc’s rich history, dating back to the 1950’s, a third or more of the 150 years being celebrated within this parade.” “Walking in the Oconomowoc parade is not political; It continues my personal ethos of service, greeting all of the wonderful people I serve, no matter who they are or what their personal beliefs,” Dittrich wrote in part, urging the Rotary to reverse its decision. “We have listened intently to your feedback, and we fully recognize the importance of traditional parade participation to many of our local politicians and constituents alike,” the Rotary said in the new statement. In a June 11 message to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, club president Bonnie Lewis-Tschannen said “what’s been unfolding is beyond reason.” “Perhaps the most absurd claim is that we were somehow targeting or banning only Republicans. That is simply not true, and it’s incredibly disheartening to see the narrative twisted this way,” Lewis-Tschannen wrote. Other communities have moved to limit political participation in parades, including Middleton in 2022 after Republican candidates lodged complaints that only incumbents, who were all Democrats in the area, could participate. And rules against campaigning at Waukesha’s July 4 parade drew conservative scrutiny after former Republican U.S. Senate candidate Eric Hovde was told he couldn’t participate, while a Democratic congressional candidate could. Oconomowoc’s Independence Day Parade begins at 5 p.m. July 4, starting at West Wisconsin Avenue and Concord Road and ending at the Oconomowoc Police Station.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Grand County Republicans are getting ready for Independence Day. The day begins with a parade down Granby’s Main Street at 11 a.m. After the parade, the Republicans will have a table at the Party in the Park at Polhamus Park for community members to stop by. On July 7, the party will hold its monthly meeting in Kremmling. The meeting is at 404 Park Ave from 6:30-8 p.m. Dinner is sponsored by Rebecca Guthrie. There is no virtual option at the meeting, and party members are encouraged to attend in person and get to know each other. This event will be less formal, with a 20-minute discussion inside (please bring a chair), then time outside to mingle. For September, the Republicans are looking ahead to Constitution Week in Grand Lake. The patriotic celebration takes place from Sept. 15-21. Volunteers are planning to participate in the parade and have a table at the event. A schedule of events will be announced.)

— Federal Hiring Office Walks Back Essay Questions for New Hires. For Democrats, the federal government exists to hire, retain, and promote Democrats. 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 who was minority, female, younger, and/or veteran who would take the job. They gambled and lost that I would become a Democrat. Because of that, they wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997.

If you are a federal employee, the more of the following that you are, the less that Civil Service provisions protect you: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or if you have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. Because I am all of the aforesaid and because I complained about their discrimination, my Democrat superiors in the federal government were able to take many adverse actions against me. My Democrat GAO superiors 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 to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors never promoted me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.

— I should write a book about Wheaton Independence Day parades since 1978. I would focus on Republican participation in those parades. I would focus on those who are working the hardest to diminish/end Republican participation in this year’s Wheaton and Glen Ellyn parades. They argue that the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) cannot afford the $1,500+ cost of entry fees and candy for the parades. In 2007, I succeeded in raising $2,000 on short notice so that an elephant could walk behind U.S. Congressman Peter Roskam in Wheaton’s 2007 parade. SEE:  https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/july-4-evening-edition-2/  I served as the Republican fundraiser for the Wheaton Independence Day parades 2005-2021. In my book, I would focus on those who had their operatives and their dupes end what I did. I have urged MTRO to encourage Republican candidates for U.S. Senate, U.S. Congressional District 3, Illinois statewide offices, Illinois senate, Illinois house, DuPage countywide offices, DuPage County District 4, etc. to participate in this year’s Wheaton and Glen Ellyn parades. Please join me in urging MTRO to maximize its participation in those parades. Please join me in urging Republican candidates to participate in those parades. I certainly hope that LaHood walks in both parades. His father walked in Wheaton’s 2005 parade. I spoke with him before the parade kicked off. Bob Dole walked in Wheaton’s 1996 parade, Jim Ryan in its 2002 parade, and Obama and his wife in its 2004 parade. – Dave Diersen

In my defense, the federal government wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. Further, I would not have become a postal employee in 1966 if my high school friend had not asked me to join him in taking the postal employment test and I would not have become an IRS employee in 1971 if I had not taken and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970 as a backup if I could not get a job in the private sector and if Oldsmobile had not withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. My efforts to get a good job in the private sector were frustrated by being viewed as being draft bait.

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.

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.)

— Subcommittee Debates Potential Erosion of Meritocracy by DEI Initiatives. My critics/opponents promote Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, they promote race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. I should write about my critics/opponents.
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’s probationary period reforms cemented in OPM final rule. With OPM’s final rule, agencies can decide fire feds in their probationary period based broadly on agency needs, interests and “organizational goals.” After I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1980, my Democrat GAO superiors were furious that could not use probationary rules to get rid of me. I should write about that.

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.

— Who pays the price of Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI? The more of the following that you are, the more that you pay for AA and DEI: lower income, conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. The more of the aforesaid that you are the, the more that Democrats and RINOs make you pay the price of affirmative Action. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— All my employers, including GAO, IRS, and the Post Office, were Democrat Affirmative Action and DEI employers. That is, they all gave big time preference to their employees who were Democrat and minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in been in America for a long time. That is, they all discriminated against their employees who were Republican and White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in been in America for a long time. Because I am all of the aforesaid, I never would have made it to GS-13 Step 10, currently $153.151/year, if I had not a) earned a job-related professional license, b) earned six job-related professional certifications, c) earned three job-related master’s degrees, d) earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, e) passed the Federal Employee Entrance Examination, and f) passed the postal employment test.  – Dave Diersen

All my coworkers who got promoted over me were Democrats who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in been in America for a long time. They all 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. All my employers were Democrat employers that used Affirmative Action, DEI, up-or-out, budget cuts, and/or veterans preference to waste the careers of and to get rid of their Republican employees. – Dave Diersen

— In a completely different world, when Bush got elected in 2000, he and Hastert, Fitzgerald, and Hyde would have a) reformed GAO b) gotten rid of my GAO superiors who had wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, and c) had GAO rehire me. I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $117,807-$153,151/year. I had earned a) a CPA license, b) master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance, and c) professional certifications in accounting, internal auditing, fraud examination, government financial management, financial services auditing, and forensic accounting. 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. If GAO had been reformed, there would be no need for DOGE. – Dave Diersen

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. – Dave Diersen
