— Democrat leaders ever-increasingly promote Pritzker. Pritzker ever-increasingly promotes more hatred against Trump and the Democrat Party platform, that is, dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, prostitution, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, and the rest of the Democrat Party platform. Under Pritzker, the more of the following that you are, the bleaker that your future is: heterosexual, conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time. Under Pritzker, poverty and crime will ever-increasingly increase.

— A kick-off campaign for a ballot measure targeting sanctuary status has been moved to a new location after owners of 115 Bourbon Street, where the event was originally to be held, were subject to threats, according to Terry Newsome, a MAGA Republican and Jan. 6 protester who’s helping organize the Wednesday event with the Save Illinois Coalition. The kick-off is now at Belvedere Banquets in Elk Grove Village instead. . .More than a hundred Jewish members of Northwestern University’s faculty and staff are pushing back against claims that there is “widespread antisemitic harassment” at the school.

— What if anti-conservative leaders had not had their operatives and their dupes destroy TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC)? Under my chairmanship, TAPROOT would still be holding monthly breakfast meetings, an August picnic, and a December Christmas party. Speakers at those events would still be advocating conservative principles. They would still be advocating the Republican Party platform including its personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. I should write about those anti-conservative leaders who had their operatives and their dupes destroy TAPROOT and ICRC. I would focus on those who reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately. – Dave Diersen

— What do you fight against that your critics/opponents fight for. I fight against race and gender based preference giving. My critics/opponents fight for race and gender based preference giving. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately. According to them, I owe all my successes in life to my benefitting from discrimination against minorities and females. But neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. 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. Further, virtually all federal employees are Democrats. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, they gave tremendous preference to their Democrat employees who were minority and/or female. All my coworkers who they promoted over me were Democrats and many if not most of them were minority and/or female. 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. – Dave Diersen

— Duckworth calls Trump a “draft-dodging coward.” Since I was 18 years old in 1966, my critics/opponents have used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me. My Democrat Post Office, Firestone Store, IRS, and GAO superiors always stressed to my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates that I did not enlist and that I got student draft deferments 1966-1970 while I attended UIC and NIU and that I got a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. They have always stressed that if I had not avoided the draft, I would not have been able to a) buy new cars in 1967, 1968, 1971, 1973, 1978, etc., b) buy real estate in 1972, 1974, 1976, and 1978, c) earn a bachelor’s degree in 1970 and master’s degrees in 1976 and 1980, d) pass the CPA examination in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981, e) become a licensed CPA in 1981, or f) get married in 1978. My Democrat superiors got my Democrat superiors and supervisors who were veterans to take many big adverse actions against me. I should write about that. – Dave Diersen

— Trump’s $5K push present won’t bring more babies — we have better ways to reverse sinking birth rates. According to my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, if my wife and I had children, I would not have been able to a) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, c) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, d) become a licensed CPA in 1981, e) etc. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors all had children and/or spouses who had and little or no income.

— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Car condo project pitched for Lake Zurich would include clubhouse, luxury car dealership. I should write about Iron Gate Motor Condos in Naperville and its unit owners. I have attended many events there since its opening. I bought a small unit there in 2020. I sold it and bought a bigger unit in 2023. I sold it and bought a bigger unit this year. If you are interested in muscle cars, especially Corvettes, Chargers, Mustangs, and Thunderbirds, please let me know.
https://www.dailyherald.com/20250425/business/car-condo-project-pitched-for-lake-zurich-would-include-clubhouse-luxury-car-dealership/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The developer of the Sanctuary of Lake Zurich residential community wants to build a different kind of condo project in town. Luxury still would be the watchword but these units would be used to store classic and rare cars, some worth millions of dollars. And there is a ready market, says Romeo Kapudija. “It’s shocking to me how many rare cars are out there and how much they’re valued at but this is a very popular business model right now and type of development and they’re selling out across the country,” he explained to the Lake Zurich village board this week during a courtesy review of Luxe Corsa Car Condominiums. . .Kapudija said the market is hot for these types of developments, referencing Iron Gate in Naperville and another planned in Barrington as examples of their popularity. Iron Gate Motor Condos was among the first in Illinois to offer space exclusively for classic, collector or exotic vehicles. Ground was broken on 50 acres near Interstate 88 and Route 59 in 2014. “Proof of concept didn’t exist when I started,” said commercial builder, car enthusiast and founder Tom Burgess. “I had to go out of state and bring in people who could explain it” to city officials. Popularity fueled expansion to include 40,000 square feet of auto-related retail. “It turned into more than just the condos,” he said. “There’s a huge car community in Chicagoland. It’s deep and broad. It’s amazing.”)

— As IRS Collections Rise, Clear Start Tax Urges Taxpayers to Take Advantage of the Fresh Start Initiative. I worked for IRS’s Collection Division 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. I should write about my critics/opponents who have used that against me the most. In my defense, I would not have become an IRS employee a) if Oldsmobile had not offered me a job in 1971, b) if my Firestone Store boss had not rudely fired me because I accepted that offer, c) if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn its job offer saying it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint, and d) if I didn’t have to have a job.

(COMMENT: With IRS Enforcement Increasing in 2025, Clear Start Tax Reminds Americans They Still Have Time to Resolve Back Taxes Through Relief Programs. As the IRS steps up its collection efforts in 2024, more Americans are receiving notices, facing wage garnishments, or dealing with tax liens. In response, Clear Start Tax is urging taxpayers with unresolved IRS debt to act quickly and explore relief options under the IRS Fresh Start Initiative, a program designed to help individuals and businesses resolve back taxes affordably. The IRS recently announced renewed funding and a more aggressive stance on collections, which means taxpayers who have ignored or delayed addressing their debt could face heavier enforcement actions in the months ahead. The Urgency of Exploring Debt Resolution Programs As IRS collection efforts intensify, it’s critical for taxpayers with unresolved debt to act before enforcement escalates. The IRS Fresh Start Initiative offers structured programs designed to ease that burden, including Offer in Compromise, Installment Agreements, and Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status. These options can reduce penalties, halt wage garnishments or levies, and in many cases, allow taxpayers to resolve their debt for significantly less than the full amount owed.)

Democrat leaders reject meritocracy a) because Democrat leaders want votes from Blacks, Hispanics, and women and b) because when opportunity is equal, Republican White men do better than Democrat Blacks, Hispanics, and women. All my coworkers who my Democrat superiors in the federal government promoted over me were Democrats and many were Blacks, Hispanics, and/or women.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Donald Trump signed a groundbreaking executive order Thursday eliminating the use of disparate impact theory by the feds. The order “restores the true promise of the Civil Rights Movement—a system that does not differentiate between Americans based on race and where success is determined by individual merit, free from discriminatory practices that prioritize group outcomes over personal achievement.” Disparate impact theory says that any disparity must be the result of discrimination, bigotry, and racism of some kind or another. So for example, if more white people than non-white people pass a firefighter’s exam, then it must be because of racism. Or if more non-white people than white people are pulled over for speeding, that too must be the result of racism and bigotry.)

FEDERAL NEWS NETWORK
— Probationary employees face stricter review process under new executive order. If my Democrat GAO superiors could have used probationary procedures to get rid of me, they would have. My doing the following after I transferred from IRS to GAO in early 1980 frustrated their efforts to get rid of me. 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.
https://federalnewsnetwork.com/workforce/2025/04/probationary-employees-face-stricter-review-process-under-new-executive-order/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Probationary employees will now have an additional hurdle to clear before they can solidify their federal employment, according to an executive order President Donald Trump signed Thursday evening. Trump’s new order calls for the creation of “Civil Service Rule XI,” which will require agencies to review and actively sign off on probationary workers’ continued employment before they can be moved out of a probationary period. Federal employees are put into probationary periods when they first enter the civil service, or when they begin a new position, for example after getting a promotion. Once a probationary period ends — usually after one or two years of federal service — employees will automatically transition out of probationary status. “Instead of these employees becoming tenured civil servants by default, Rule XI requires agencies to affirmatively certify that finalizing their appointment after their probationary or trial period concludes advances the public interest,” the White House wrote Thursday in a fact sheet detailing the intentions of the executive order. Under current federal regulations, agencies can only remove probationary employees for issues with performance or conduct. Those rules around probationary periods spurred litigation involving the recent mass terminations of tens of thousands of probationary employees. Earlier this month, the Supreme Court blocked an order for the Trump administration to reinstate the probationary employees. Trump’s new executive order, however, adds a new reason that probationary employees can be removed from their jobs. Under the new “Civil Service Rule XI,” agencies can also determine whether a probationary employee should remain in their job based on agency needs and the interest of the public. “It alters the reason for letting a probationer go to include the generic needs and interests of the agency, as opposed to the individual’s performance or conduct,” Debra D’Agostino, an attorney and partner at Federal Practice Group, said in an interview. “It adds this generic reason where the agency can decide that it’s not in the needs or interest of the agency to keep this person.” “Usually, if someone’s not going to satisfy their probation, it’s going to be because of performance or conduct,” Kevin Owen, a partner at Gilbert Employment Law, added. “If the administration is going to start interjecting some sort of ideological component, we’re going to start again sliding into some level of a spoils system here.”)

The agency shrank from more than 6,000 employees to less than 3,000 employees. If Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it, there would be no need for DOGE. Reforms could have included a) requiring that at least one-third of GAO employees at each grade level be Republican and b) requiring that all requests for GAO to do work be bipartisan. – Dave Diersen

— The Trump administration is resuming collections from student loan borrowers in default. If you had to work your way through college, how would your life have been different if you had not had to do that? My high school, undergraduate, and graduate GPAs would have been higher. Instead of studying, I spent far too many hours washing dishes while I was a Crete-Monee student 1964-1966. My ACT score was only 24. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. Instead of studying, I spent far too many hours a) delivering mail while I was a UIC and NIU student 1966-1969, b) selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances while I was a UIC student in 1971, c) pumping gasoline while I was a Loyola student in 1972, d) collecting delinquent taxes while I was a Loyola and DePaul student 1972-1980, and e) auditing federal agencies while I was a DePaul student in 1980 and an IIT student 1992-1997. Further, my 1979 CPA examination scores would have been higher if I had studied instead of collected delinquent federal taxes. Further, my 1981 Certified Internal Auditor examination scores would have been higher if I had studied instead of audited federal agencies. – Dave Diersen

— If you could do it over again, would you have had the same college major? I would have majored in accounting instead of management. I did not take and pass the CPA examination on my first attempt until I was 30 years old in 1979. By then, the accounting profession considered me to be far too old to have a successful career in accounting. The profession would not have done that if I had been a minority, female, and/or veteran. It is called reverse discrimination and age discrimination. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Should I form a DuPage DOGE? I would draw on what I learned a) working 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, b) working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year, c) becoming a licensed CPA, d) becoming a Certified Forensic Accountant, Financial Services Auditor, Government Financial Manager, Fraud Examiner, Internal Auditor, and Public Accountant, and e) earning master’s degrees in finance, accounting, and business. – Dave Diersen

In my defense, I stress that a) I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, b) I earned three job-related master’s degrees, c) I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, d) I became a licensed CPA, and e) I earned four more job-related professional certifications. None of my coworkers who they promoted over me had done anything close to that. They all were Democrats who 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. They all were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

In my defense, I stress that a) I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, b) I earned three job-related master’s degrees, c) I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, d) I became a licensed CPA, and e) I earned four more job-related professional certifications. None of my coworkers who they promoted over me had done anything close to that. They all were Democrats who 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. They all were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 years old in 1986. By then, I had a) earned an MBA in 1976, b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) transferred to GAO and earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, and d) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. My Democrat GAO superiors never promoted me to GS-14 even though a) I earned four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and b) earned a master’s degree in finance in 1997.

WHITE HOUSE
— Extension of Hiring Freeze. All during the almost 18 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO, the agency was almost always under Gingrich-caused hiring freezes and/or promotion freezes. My Democrat GAO superiors punished me severely because of that. They forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay for performance purposes. They forced me to retire when I was 49 years old. They flushed down their toilets my three job-related master’s degrees, my six job-related professional certifications, and my job-related professional license. What does Gingrich have to say about that? If Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it, there would be no need for DOGE.

— What harmed your career the most? For me, first, it was my Firestone Store manager’s disapproval of my demographics. Firestone Store’s District Office hired me and assigned me to his store in 1970. He never would have hired me. He vehemently disapproved of my avoiding the Vietnam War draft. Then it was Oldsmobile’s withdrawing its job offer because it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint in 1971. That ended my career in automotive industry. My Firestone Store manager rudely fired me because I accepted that offer. I accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 because I had to have a job. Then it was my Democrat IRS superiors’ success in getting rid of the manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. Then it was my Democrat GAO superiors’ success in getting rid of the manager who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors got rid of the aforesaid managers because they had advanced me instead of advancing my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. But then, more significantly, it was my opposing my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors’ race and gender based preference giving, their political affiliation discrimination, their reverse discrimination, their age discrimination, their religious discrimination, and their national origin discrimination. But then, even more significantly, it was my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in 1988. – Dave Diersen

— What helped your career the most? For me, it was my a) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, f) my earning more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and g) my earning a master’s degree in finance in 1997. If I had not done the aforesaid, a) IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and b) GAO would not have hired me in 1980, promoted me in 1986, or let me work as long as it did. – Dave Diersen

— Supreme Court blocks order requiring Trump administration to reinstate thousands of federal workers. After my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire, a low level Democrat GAO Personnel Office employee hinted that he might be able to get me reinstated. But my Democrat GAO superiors had made it clear that if did not retire, they would make the next 6 years until I would be eligible for regular retirement a living hell for me. They promised to demote me and to give me adverse transfers, bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations and evaluations, and even worse things. They could easily do that because GAO was not unionized.

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— How unions can navigate the Trump years. I should write about my critics/opponents who are the most anti-union. They stress that while I was a union member, my salary increased from $19.37/hour to $112,280/year in today’s dollars. In my defense, during that time, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU and an MBA from Loyola and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt.

— Rep. Jasmine Crockett calls on illegals to pick her cotton because ‘we done picking cotton’ I never picked cotton, but I did yard work, delivered newspapers, washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivered mail, worked on an automobile assembly line, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances, pumped more gasoline, collected delinquent taxes, and audited federal agencies. According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take.
