— After-school programs in Springfield impacting nearly 850 students could be eliminated. What did you do after-school? During my junior and senior years at Crete-Monee High School 1964-1966, and the summer in between, I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights. With the money that earned and saved doing that, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 that I used to commute to/from my parents’ home in Crete and classes at UIC 1966-1967 and jobs cleaning golf shoes in Flossmoor, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline in South Chicago Heights during the summer of 1966, and delivering mail in Park Forest 1966-1967. I sold it late in 1967 and bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442.

Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts asked the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to seek answers to those questions and to study the impacts of the firings, arguing that removing people from critical areas of government — such as air travel, wildland firefighting, infectious disease control, nuclear security and veterans’ health care — has put the county’s health and safety at risk. In a letter to Warren and other Democratic senators, the federal office said it accepted their request to review the firings.

— Upcoming ‘New Illinois’ convention to split state driven by rural, urban divide. Will Cook County stay Illinois and the rest of the state become ‘New Illinois?’
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_a5c82042-cb19-45de-b3fe-7068ab7ad5cc.html
(COMMENT: The divide between rural and urban areas in Illinois is one of the main drivers of many looking to split the state in two. G.H. Merritt is chairman of New Illinois, a group that plans their seventh constitutional convention next weekend in Bloomington. The movement aims to make a new state out of most of Illinois, excluding Cook County. “When you have a very large group of people that is disenfranchised, that is going to cause division and I think separating states maybe would help people get along better,” Merritt told The Center Square. Merritt said a 1964 U.S. Supreme Court ruling effectively allowed a state’s largest populated area to dictate politics for the rest of the state. “When you take a state that already has a history of corruption and you apply Reynolds v. Sims to that, that causes all the power to be concentrated like that, that opens the door for no accountability, opens the door for more corruption,” Merritt said. Among similar movements in other states around the country, Indiana recently created a commission to investigate absorbing counties that want to split from Illinois. “Their economy in Northwest Indiana is so tied into the economy of Chicago that if Chicago goes the way of Detroit … that is going to adversely affect them,” said Merritt. Merritt doesn’t expect Indiana’s effort to succeed, as it requires cooperation from Illinois Democrats. Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said Indiana’s efforts were a “stunt.” One element impacting many to move toward separating the state into two is the state’s finances. Illinois’ pension debt is among the worst in the country and the state’s residents pay among the highest taxes in the country. “People look at this on the surface and think it’s a Democrat versus Republican thing, that is not the way we see it at all,” Merritt said. “It is an urban versus rural, small town and suburban thing.” Among the “grievances” New Illinois has published on their website are: Lack of representative government, extreme gerrymandering, violation of Second Amendment rights and “the government of Illinois is a tyranny.” The New Illinois Convention is Friday evening, April 4, and all day Saturday, April 5, at the Chateau Hotel and Convention Center in Bloomington.)

— What has your Republican Precinct Committeeman done to help elect Republicans on April 1, 2025? Yesterday, using 800 mailing labels and 400 envelopes, I finished hand-delivering Republican campaign literature and sample ballots to the 400 residences (375 homes and 25 low-income apartments) in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton that have at least one Republican or one Independent voter. My precinct having three different ballot styles complicated matters. I divided my precinct into five zones. It took me three+ hours to walk each zone. While I walked my precinct, I got a measure of the success that hate-filled Trump-hating Trump haters have had promoting more hatred against Trump. Republican Precinct Committeemen are lightning rods for that hatred. 478 in my precinct voted for Harris. – Dave Diersen

My doing the following helped me survive for almost 18 years working for my Democrat GAO superiors: a) my earning master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance in 1976, 1980, and 1997, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, and d) my earning four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. – Dave Diersen

The Democrats who ran the Park Forest Post office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. They gambled and lost that I would become a Democrat. They disapproved of my being a Vietnam War draft avoider, conservative, Republican, Protestant, German American, Crete resident since 1948, and new car owner. I used my 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint to deliver mail 1966-1967, then my 1968 Oldsmobile 442 1967-1968, and then my 1969 Dodge Charger SE 1968-1969. I had bought my Pontiac with money that I earned washing dishes part-time 1964-1966. To get rid of me, they disallowed my sick leave requests in 1968 and 1969 and forced me to resign in 1969 by falsely arguing that I was not available to work enough part-time hours. I was available to work every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, holiday, and every day NIU was not in session.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Starting in 1883, there came a series of reforms, culminating in the Pendleton Act, which established civil service and a merit system for persons competing for jobs. . .The Pendleton Act banned the hiring of relatives, donors and other supporters for a certain class of federal jobs that required special knowledge or skills. It also banned the firing of employees for political reasons. At first, the act covered just 10% of federal jobs, but it expanded to encompass the vast majority.)

My qualifications for the IRS job included my passing the Federal Service Entrance Examination and my earning a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970.

— The downside of early retirement. Because my Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, in today’s dollars, my Civil Service Retirement System pension a) is only 44% of what my salary was in 1997 and b) is less than what my IRS salary was in 1972. But far worse than that, my critics/opponents have always viciously used against me my having been forced to retire early. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I must be an extremely bad person because I was forced to retire even though I had so many qualifications. I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years and for IRS for almost 9 years before that. GAO audits IRS. I had earned an MBA in 1976, a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, and a master’s degree in finance in 1997. I had passed on my first attempt the CPA examination in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981. I had earned four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. I had become a licensed CPA in 1981. My critics/opponents ignore/dismiss/belittle a) the fact that I had been an active member in a class action lawsuit since 1988 that charged my Democrat GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) the fact that Gingrich had dramatically cut GAO’s budget, and c) the fact that my Democrat GAO superiors gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had one professional certification while I had six, had no CPA license like the one I had, and had always ran the office’s Black History Month events.

Nevertheless, he believed that was too much to qualify for financial scholarships. And as my critics/opponents have always stressed, I did not qualify for scholastic scholarships because my ACT score was only 24 and I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. Therefore, I worked my way through college.

Harvard said students from families making less than $200,000 a year will not be charged for tuition, expanding on a previous decision to make the school completely free, covering tuition, housing and other costs, for those coming from families making less than $100,000 a year.)

— ‘Slanted’ Review: Extreme Makeover Satire Critiques Lopsided Beauty Standards Through Asian Eyes (COMMENT: All during my lifetime, everyone around me came under ever-increasing pressure from Democrat and RINO leaders to give ever-increasing preference to those who were minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.)
https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/reviews/slanted-review-extreme-makeover-satire-critiques-lopsided-beauty-standards-through-asian-eyes/ar-AA1AXixe
(FROM THE ARTICLE: From the moment 8-year-old Joan arrives in the U.S. (played by Kristen Cui at that point), she’s confronted with signs of what the locals consider to be desirable: billboards with blond, bikini-clad models; Norman Rockwell-like propaganda art on the classroom walls; and a freckle-faced bully who makes fun of her eyes. Flash-forward nine years, and Joan (now played by a grad school-aged actor) is bleaching her hair and doctoring her selfies with the Ethnos app (designed to make people of color look white). It feels edgy to call out such self-effacing, approval-chasing behavior at a time when appearance-altering practices are widespread, and potentially controversial to suggest that what Joan wants most is to be white.)

Parents Ted and Caitlin, both veterans, say they’ve felt unsafe in their home country since Donald Trump returned to the White House. They took their children out of school the day after the presidential inauguration, fearing for their mental health.)

(COMMENT: Anticipate/expect that some Democrat and RINO leaders will put their promotion of DEI under the table and off the books. I should write about those Democrat and RINO leaders in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton who have bragged the most about their DEI promotion, that is, who have bragged the most about their promotion of race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination.)
https://www.thefp.com/p/jb-pritzker-dei-donald-trump-pritzker-family-foundation-website
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a Free Press review of internet archive records, Pritzker’s own family nonprofit appears to have scrubbed a slew of DEI language from its website on March 11. The Pritzker Family Foundation eliminated the phrase justice and equity from its mission statement and jettisoned the word inequities to describe its focus on social justice. The group also removed the word equitable from the statement that said the group had a “deep desire to create more just and equitable outcomes.” And the foundation removed an entire sentence from its website that read: “Learn more about our ongoing efforts to apply a lens of Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) to our grantmaking here,” which linked to a downloadable foundation document detailing its “ongoing journey” to embrace DEI. This document can no longer be found on the foundation’s site, but was located by The Free Press on the internet archive.)

— What is/was your employers’ top priority? I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969. Their top priority was hiring, retaining, and promoting Democrats who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. To achieve the aforesaid, they ever-increasingly a) lowered their hiring, retention, and promotion standards and b) used the extreme subjectivity in their personnel policies a) to give preference to their employees who were the aforesaid and b) to waste the careers of and to get rid of their employees who were not the aforesaid.

The least of which they would do would be to demote me and to give me adverse transfers. Previously, they had 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 them, and forced to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut to transfer from IRS.

— Federal agencies are under a Thursday deadline to turn over plans to the Office of Personnel Management on how they plan to reduce the size of their respective agencies, including through reductions in workforce. A federal judge ruled Thursday that thousands of probationary employees who were abruptly terminated last month must be re-instated. (COMMENT: Democrats run GAO. I have saved voluminous records of what my Democrat GAO superiors did to deal with Gingrich budget cuts 1980-1997. They used Gingrich’s budget cuts along with Affirmative Action, DEI, up-or-out, subjectivity in their personnel systems, etc. to get rid of their Republican employees like me who were conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. I would not have survived for almost 18 years if I had not a) earned job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, b) earned job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, c) earn a job-related professional license in 1981.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: To JB Pritzker: Please reply to this email with approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager, the people of Illinois. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation. Sincerely, The Illinois Republican Party P.S. We’re pretty sure you aren’t going to respond, so here are some suggestions: Compared Republicans to Nazis – A desperate, disgusting attack to distract from his own failures. Classy. Went on MSNBC for a Love Fest – Instead of working for Illinois families, he spent his time trying to impress liberal elites. Pushed More Tax Hikes – Because clearly, Illinois families and businesses just aren’t paying enough already. Doubled Down on Sanctuary Policies – Inviting even more illegal immigrants to Illinois while ignoring the financial and safety crisis it creates. Continued Pretending to Be President – Instead of fixing Illinois, he’s out there demanding that Trump and Congress listen to him. Delusional. Meanwhile, Illinois Republicans are focused on REAL solutions: Fighting for lower taxes and economic growth, Protecting our communities from crime and lawlessness, Standing with President Trump to secure our borders, Stopping Pritzker’s radical policies before they do even more damage)

WASHINGTON POST
— Democrat leaders say “Judges order Trump officials to offer jobs back to thousands of fired workers.” (COMMENT: If you were forced to retire early, would you take a reinstatement offer? After my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, a low-level employee in GAO’s personnel office hinted verbally that he might be able to get me reinstated. I asked that he put the terms in writing, but he never did. To force me to retire, my Democrat GAO superiors made it clear to me that if I did not, they would make my next 6 years until I would be eligible for regular retirement a living hell for me. According to them, they would demote me, give me adverse transfers, give me bad job assignments, give me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, and even worse things. Previously, they had always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 years, and forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer to GAO from IRS when I was 31 years old in 1980. Previously, they had focused on making all my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates despise me, if not hate me. They stressed that I was conservative, Republican, White, male, older, draft-avoider, Protestant, German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, a Crete resident 1948-1972, a Wheaton resident since 1978, and an IRS employee 1971-1980. They stressed that my wife had a good job, that we had no children or other dependents, that we had a home built in Wheaton in 1984, that we had no debts, that we owned two collector cars, etc. If GAO had been unionized, my GAO superiors would not have been able to take the aforesaid adverse actions against me that they did.)

— 1996 FLASHBACK: DEMOCRAT LEADERS SAY: GAO’s DOWNSIZING EFFORTS (COMMENT: I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997. Gingrich cut GAO’s budget 15 percent in 1996 and 10 percent in 1997.)
https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-T-OCG-96-4/pdf/GAOREPORTS-T-OCG-96-4.pdf )
(FROM THE REPORT: Last year, the Congress directed a 25 percent reduction in our funding—15 percent to be accomplished in fiscal year 1996 and an additional 10 percent in fiscal year 1997. Because nearly 80 percent of our budget pays for salaries and personnel-related costs, we reached the unavoidable conclusion that the agency could not absorb these reductions without significantly downsizing our workforce. In response to this budget situation, the Comptroller General established a team of senior level managers to assess the impact of the funding reductions and develop a plan for achieving these reductions. In July 1995, the Comptroller General approved the team’s plan to reduce GAO’s workforce by about 850 employees over 14 months. Under the plan, GAO’s workforce would be reduced to about 3,500 by the beginning of fiscal year 1997. The goal of the plan was to achieve large reductions in a way that would avoid major disruptions in our workplace, while leaving us with the skills required to carry out our mission and maintain current production levels.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. Tax Cuts Promised for All Americans. . .2. Border Closed, Deportations Underway. . .3. Trump Touts ‘Common Sense Revolution’. . .including rooting out “woke” ideas from the government and federally-funded programs. He referenced an executive order signed early in his second term declaring that the federal government recognizes only two sexes, based on biological sex at conception and not “gender ideology.” Trump highlighted his executive order stripping federal funding for schools that allow males to compete in female sports. One order declared that it is the official policy of the United States that Title IX applies to women and not men who identify as transgender females. The first gallery guest introduced by Trump was Payton McNabb, a female athlete who suffered injuries while playing volleyball against a male player. Trump also referenced merit-based hiring—rather than hiring to meet diversity quotas—as part of his “common sense revolution” agenda. . .4. Tariffs Explained, ‘A Little Disturbance’. . .5. DOGE Findings Highlighted. . .6. Promises Balanced Budget. . .7. Victims Spotlighted. . .8. Direct Appeal to Greenlanders. . .9. Letter From Zelenskyy. . .10. New Shipbuilding Office. . .11.

NORTHERN PUBLIC RADIO
— You want privacy with that? (COMMENT: I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, including almost 9 years for IRS and 3 years for GAO on audits of IRS. Federal employees who are Republican should anticipate/expect that their Democrat superiors will get your tax information and use it against you. My Democrat IRS superiors used my tax information to disallow my education deductions. My Democrat GAO superiors used my and my wife’s tax information to paint me as being undeservedly filthy rich.)
https://www.northernpublicradio.org/wnij-news/2025-03-05/perspective-you-want-privacy-with-that
(FROM THE ARTICLE: We’re well into a particularly dreaded time of year. Ah, yes. It’s time to pay 2024 taxes. According to a 2023 report from an ad hoc Congressional committee, “Big Tax Prep has recklessly shared tens of millions of taxpayers’ sensitive personal and financial data…for years in what appears to represent a violation of taxpayer privacy laws.” That’s pretty scathing. Think about this: the instant you open that commercial tax package and start uploading your data, you may be risking the loss of your financial privacy. It has me thinking about going back to the twentieth century and filing on paper! Fortunately, Congress and the Internal Revenue Service are rolling out a remedy. This year, it’s now possible for taxpayers in twenty-five states (including Illinois and Wisconsin) to file directly with the IRS – for free. The process will forever be (dare I say) taxing. But at least we’re getting some privacy protections with the new IRS Direct File program. I suppose we can call that……progress.)

It has never helped me find a job appropriate for my work experience, education, professional certifications, and professional license. For that matter, neither has DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, or Wheaton Warrenville School District 200.)

— What discourages you from helping elect Republican candidates?

— Democrats and RINOs are woke. To be woke is to work against Americans who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. Wokeness/wokeism is Affirmative Action, DEI, race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. Since the 1960s, Democrats and RINOs have ever-increasingly used the aforesaid to get rid of me. If my Democrat superiors in the federal government had not used the aforesaid against me, I would have made Senior Executive Service, currently $195,200/year, long before I was 40 years old. I say that because a) I earned job-related master’s degree when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) I became a licensed CPA when I was 32. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32. None of my coworkers had accomplishments anywhere near the aforesaid. – Dave Diersen

— If my parents had not sent me to Missouri Synod Lutheran Grade Schools, I would not have been able to a) get an ACT score of 24, graduate in the upper 20% of my class, or c) get accepted by UIC. To teach wokeness/wokeism is to demonize, denigrate, and condemn students who are White, male, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. – Dave Diersen
