LANSING JOURNAL
— Thornton Township election preview: Tuesday is Caucus Day; candidates so far (COMMENT: It would be great if all township governments would issue press releases that would provide such detail.)
https://thelansingjournal.com/2024/12/02/thornton-township-election-preview-tuesday-is-caucus-day-candidates-so-far/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In preparation for what could be the most contested Thornton Township election in recent history, major political parties will each hold a caucus Tuesday, Dec. 3, to select candidates for supervisor, clerk, assessor, highway commissioner, and four trustee seats. Voters will go to the polls on April 1, 2025, to make their selections in the Consolidated Election, and the caucuses determine which candidates they will see on their ballots. A source familiar with Thornton Township politics said these are the first caucuses held in many years. . .Residents of Thornton Township may participate in either the Democratic or Republican Party caucuses, nominating a candidate and voting on their party’s nominees. By participating in the caucus, a resident is becoming affiliated with that political party. Caucus proceedings When entering the caucus room, participants will be asked to sign an affidavit stating they are registered to vote in Thornton Township and are affiliated with the established political party conducting the caucus — that they are a registered Democrat or registered Republican. The chair of the proceedings will call the caucus to order. They will introduce the caucus judges of election and announce the offices for which nominees will be selected. Then the chair calls for nominations, which can come from anyone in the caucus. The procedure continues until there are no more nominations. Participants then vote on their preferred nominees. The highest vote-getters in each race are selected as the nominee. Independent and other candidates Candidates running under non-major political parties have already filed their candidacy for Thornton Township, and do not participate in the caucus process. Four Independent Party candidates are looking to unseat Henyard: Nate Fields Jr., LaShunte’ Lollis-Walton, Stafford Owens, and Sidney Moore. Harvey Mayor Chris Clark is also a candidate for supervisor, leading a Reform Thornton Township Party ticket that includes four candidates for trustee: Harvey city administrator Corean Davis, Harvey fifth ward alderperson Dominique Randle-El, Rachel Jones, and Jacinta J. Gholston. Also running for trustee are Democrat Mary Ann Thornton and Independent Felesa Melvin. Running for highway commissioner is Independent Kenny Williams. The township Clerk’s office reported no filings for clerk or assessor. It is not clear whether other incumbents on the Thornton Township Board of Trustees, all Democrats, are seeking nominations to retain their seats.)

https://www.shawlocal.com/kane-county-chronicle/2024/11/30/former-lauzen-employee-slams-his-expertise-treatment-of-her/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In an email, Lauzen wrote that he fired Cain on Friday, Nov. 22. “It is now obvious to me that I made a mistake when I hired her,” Lauzen’s email stated. When there were concerns about her work, he said, he gave her a written six-month performance improvement plan. . .In his email, Lauzen denied saying he had “given up” on her, spoke to her with contempt, and justified that he wanted her log in ID and password because he is “ultimately responsible for everything that occurs in the Treasurer’s Office, both good and bad, I need to know what is going on around me.” As to his lack of computer skills, Lauzen said he depends on his staff and the IT department to assist. “There is no conceit on my part that my data processing skills are in any way exemplary,” Lauzen wrote. “I’m not shy to ask for help.” Lauzen also wrote that the Treasurer’s Office does not have to follow Government Accounting Standard Board rules regarding revenue. It also does not have statutory responsibility or authority to produce or present the county’s financial statements. “The Accounting Department does. Therefore, we have nothing to do with the applicability of any GASB regulations,” Lauzen wrote.)

THE HILL
— Redefining diversity in Trump’s second administration (COMMENT: All my coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me 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.)
https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/5012229-trump-dei-merit/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President-elect Donald Trump’s resounding victory signals a turning point for our nation. As America grapples with the consequences of unchecked diversity, equity and inclusion or DEI policies, the second Trump administration has a clear mandate to restore fairness and meritocracy in employment law. . .At its core, DEI as currently practiced is antithetical to the principles of fairness and equality. Instead of leveling the playing field, it tilts it steeply in favor of select groups, creating a workplace culture where hiring and promotions are often dictated by identity rather than merit. DEI practices, though often cloaked in the language of equity, are nothing more than reverse discrimination, punishing individuals for their race or gender while undermining the very concept of merit-based achievement. . .Second, Trump can promote merit-based hiring and advancement. Meritocracy is the cornerstone of a thriving economy. Employment decisions should be based on skills, qualifications and performance — not identity. The Trump administration must make it clear that federally regulated industries and contractors will face penalties for using quotas or “diversity scorecards” as hiring criteria. Transparency in hiring and promotion processes should also be mandated to ensure fairness. . .America’s workplaces must remain places of opportunity and collaboration, not battlegrounds for ideological warfare. DEI, as it currently stands, has created an environment of division, resentment and legal uncertainty. By focusing on merit, fairness and individual rights, the Trump administration can undo the damage wrought by years of identity politics and restore a culture of excellence and mutual respect.)

— Law enforcement is one of America’s hottest jobs right now (COMMENT: IRS enforces federal tax laws. I was an IRS Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year.)
https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/09/business/job-market-law-enforcement/index.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Police departments and sheriff’s offices across are clamoring for new recruits after grappling with a sharp drop in applicants and a wave of retirements after George Floyd’s murder in 2020 caused many to be wary of working for a police force, recruiters told CNN. . .The average salary of a police officer climbed more than 37% in the first eight months of this year compared to the same time last year, according to ZipRecruiter data provided to CNN. That’s a recent sign of strong demand for police officers, because from 2022 to 2023 the average salary for policing jobs rose by roughly 8%. “Police departments are trying hard to make the role more attractive after suffering a recruitment and retention crisis,” said ZipRecruiter Chief Economist Julia Pollak. She added that there’s also been a huge spike in job postings on ZipRecruiter listing “law enforcement” as a desired skill. While a police officer may be a steady job, it’s important to note that it usually requires a months-long training process (typically paid), as well as an extensive background check.)

I gave up searching for jobs appropriate for someone with my work experience, professional certifications, and professional license long ago because potential employers were turned off by the many adverse actions that my Democrat GAO superiors had taken against me. In addition to forcing me to retire early, they had a) delayed my promotions and never promoting me beyond GS-13, b) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and c) forced me to take a $22,996 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. Further they were turned off by my bad demographics, my having complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and my having sued my GAO superiors for the aforesaid. Thankfully, my wife and I could afford the $84,910/year loss in income in today’s dollars that I suffered a) because of my wife’s income, b) because of my $65,165/year federal pension in today’s dollars, c) because the federal government pays 72% of our health insurance premiums, and d) because we have no debts or dependents.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The final, official 2024 election returns are in, and boy, are they consistent. When it comes to the last three presidential elections, 2024 doesn’t look much different than 2016 or 2020 in our area. Let’s start with Champaign County, where Donald Trump’s losing percentage — a historically bad one for three consecutive elections — has barely budged. He got 36.52 percent in 2024, 36.92 percent in 2020 and 36.42 percent in 2016. No candidate has done that poorly in the county in a presidential election with just two major candidates since Democrat Adlai Stevenson in 1952 and 1956 (34 and 33 percent, respectively). Poor Jimmy Carter got just 32.2 percent in 1980, but that was also had Illinois congressman and University of Illinois graduate John Anderson running as an independent, and he got 15 percent of the vote here.)

— According to Democrat leaders, a) voters are fully aware of the Democrat Party platform, b) they support it, and c) that is why they vote for Democrat candidates. But how aware are they of the Democrat Party platform? The Democrat Party platform promotes dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, 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 nation origin discrimination. The aforesaid promotes poverty and crime. My “Republican” critics/opponents are Democrat Lite, RINO, anti-conservative, if not anti-Republican. They fail/refuse to speak against the Democrat Party platform. They fail/refuse to promote the Republican Party platform. They focus on stopping me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. They focus on stopping everyone from reading my newsletters. They have had their operatives and their dupes take many big adverse actions against me since 2000. I should start writing about my critics/opponents. – Dave Diersen

ANSWER: a) U.S. Representatives Darin LaHood, Mike Bost, and Mary Miller, b) Republican Illinois Senators and Representatives, c) Republican elected officials in your county, township, municipality, and school district, d) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, and e) leaders of your county and township/ward party organizations. – Dave Diersen

–Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Central Committee (SCC) members run the IRP. QUESTION: Why has the IRP ever-increasingly moved to the left, that is, why have Illinois Republican candidates ever-increasingly lost elections? ANSWER: IRP SCC members are not directly elected by Illinois Republicans. Those who control the IRP SCC election process are Democrat Lite, RINO, anti-conservative, if not anti-Republican. They reject some, many, most, if not virtually all of the planks in the Republican Party platform. They despise if not hate Trump. They have taken many big adverse actions against me since 2000 because I promote direct election of IRP SCC members. I should write about that. – Dave Diersen

They ignored/dismissed/belittled my knowledge of IRS and that much of what I did at IRS was very similar to what I would do at GAO. They kept me off of audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. 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 in 1997. They ignored/dismissed/belittled my earning an MBA in 1976, my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, my earning a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination and becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, my earning four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and my earning a master’s degree in finance in 1997.

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Support Proves Again to be the ‘Kiss of Death’ Even During a Trump-Dominated, Historic Election Cycle
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2024/11/il-gop-support-proves-again-to-be-the-kiss-of-death-even-during-a-trump-dominated-historic-election-cycle.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It wasn’t that long ago when IL GOP leaders were endorsing Fl. Gov. Ron DeSantis’ failed presidential bid, hosting ‘Never Trumpers’ at fundraisers in Naples, Florida; naming anti-MAGA officials as gala co-chairs and blaming President Donald Trump for Illinois election losses in 2020 and 2022. When Trump secured the Republican nomination for president last Spring, those same officials were silent. But that’s not all. When this publication revealed that a party leader in 2016 compared Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler – IL GOP officials were once again silent. This pattern, however, should come as no surprise. In 2022, IL GOP officials backed Richard Irvin’s failed campaign for Illinois governor. During the primary campaign, it was reported by WTTW’s Paris Schutz that in 2018, Irvin sent text messages calling Trump an “idiot” and a “bigoted racist.” Irvin also texted the friend, “I hate Trump too!” Irvin would lose the primary to the Trump-endorsed candidate by 43 points. During Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair last year, then Illinois Republican national committeeman Richard Porter gave an interview to the Chicago Tribune and said that Trump couldn’t win independent voters in swing states in 2024 and that he was running for president to avoid going to jail. “I think the most ardent Trumpers recognize that they might love him in their heart, but they know in their head he is not going to win independents in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, New Hampshire, Arizona and Nevada. And that’s what you need to do to become president. And if you don’t become president of the United States, Trump goes to jail.” After this publication ran a story on his reported comments, Porter was in damage control, offering a long explanation to try and repair the damage – but it was too little, too late. And during the 2024 election, Trump would win every swing state proving Porter to be wrong once again. And former Illinois House Republican leader Jim Durkin – who is revered and respected by IL GOP leaders – likes to blame Trump for every Republican loss in Illinois. In November 2023, Durkin announced that he was not going to run for Cook County State’s Attorney and he blamed President Trump for his decision not to throw his hat in the race. “I know that if you’re going to run in a race, you have to run knowing that you have a good chance of winning, and I see no path winning with Trump at the top of the ticket [in 2024],” Durkin told CBS Chicago anchor Brad Edwards. In the Spring of 2022, IL GOP leaders traveled down to Naples, Florida to host a private reception featuring former US Attorney General Bill Baar, who served as AG under the George HW Bush and Donald Trump presidential administrations. Baar remains critical of Trump, and in November of 2022, he published a scathing opinion piece in the New York Post, writing, “Unless the rest of the party goes along with him, he will burn the whole house down by leading ‘his people’ out of the GOP. Trump’s willingness to destroy the party if he does not get his way is not based on principle, but on his own supreme narcissism. His egoism makes him unable to think of a political party as anything but an extension of himself – a cult of personality.” During this past election cycle where Trump dominated and made history winning both the popular and electoral votes by historic margins – and Republicans took control of the U.S. Senate and maintained control of the U.S. House – IL GOP leaders once again proved why their support is the ‘kiss of death.’ In District 10, Democrat U.S. Rep. Brad Schneider smoked Republican Jim Carris – who was the darling of the IL GOP, by 20 points – the largest margin of defeat of any congressional candidate. Illinois Republican leaders came out strong for Carris in ways not seen with other pro-MAGA candidates – as Carris had the support of the IL GOP establishment and leaders like IL GOP co-chair Kathy Salvi and national committeeman Dean White. Carris even appeared alongside Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at a private event where the two shared the stage. Carris is pro-choice and refused to vocalize any support of Trump during his failed congressional campaign. “I’ve done a lot of research on this and studied and really given it a lot of thought and I am a pro-choice candidate,” Carris told a group in Winnetka, Illinois on June 6, 2024. During that same event, Carris refused to offer support for Trump when asked – who at the time was the presumptive Republican nominee for President, saying, “I am an independent person. I will decide when the time comes, but I’m concerned about my own campaign at this point…rather than be worried about the national election.” Carris was also endorsed by former U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk (IL), who is a Never Trumper – and called him “one of my political heroes…I can’t tell you how meaningful this is to me.” During the 2016 national GOP convention, many IL GOP leaders, including then Gov. Rauner, former Gov. Jim Edgar, US Sen. Mark Kirk and Rauner-appointed Comptroller Leslie Munger, skipped the convention because they did not support Trump. Kirk even ran an ad that said that Trump was not “fit to be Commander in Chief.” Across Illinois, state Democratic leaders maintained their super majority control as Republicans failed to flip any seats despite this being a historic Republican year with Trump at the top of the ticket. Democrats in the state House maintain the largest majority over Republicans in Illinois history. So what’s the key takeaway? IL GOP leaders and their cadre of failed political consultants have proven that like the Chicago Bears – they can find creative ways to lose and snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. But what can you expect? It’s in their DNA.)

I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents had lots of money, who bought them cars, who paid for their college expenses, and who got them jobs.)

WORD & WAY
— What Congress Reveals About Lutheran Denominations (COMMENT: In 1961, when I was in 8th grade, Trinity Lutheran Church and Grade School in Crete left the Missouri Synod for the Wisconsin Synod. To stay with the Missouri Synod, my parents joined Hope Lutheran Church in Park Forest and transferred me to a newly formed 8th grade there. That ended my parents’ annual family reunions that had been held for many decades. That had a major impact on me.)
https://wordandway.org/2024/08/15/what-congress-reveals-about-lutheran-denominations/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Among the current 532 members of Congress (there are three open House seats at the moment), Republicans have a narrow majority with 51% of the seats. The partisan divide among Lutheran members in Congress depends on which denomination. Of the 20 Lutheran members identified, 12 belong to the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America that Walz is part of, while 7 are in the more conservative Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. One other member, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, is part of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, which is smaller and more conservative than the other two bodies. . .The members of the 118th Congress show which Lutheran denominations in public life have the most partisan leaning. Only the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has a bipartisan delegation, while the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod and the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod currently only send Republicans to Congress.)

— What government policy has negatively impacted you the most? For me, it is Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI. To settle an EEOC complaint, EEOC forced Oldsmobile to withdrew a job offer that I had accepted when I was 22 in 1971. My Democrat superiors in the federal government used AA and DEI along with up-or-out to waste my career and force me to retire 1997. All my coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me were Democrats who were minority and/or female and/or 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 ignored/dismissed/belittled a) the job-related master’s degrees that I earned in 1976, 1980, and 1997, b) the job-related professional certifications that I earned in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and c) the job-related professional license that I earned in 1981. AA and DEI promoting leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization used AA and DEI to stop me holding any leadership roles in the aforesaid. They have always stressed a) that I am not a minority, female, or veteran, b) that I am old (born in 1948), and c) that I am Protestant, German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, and Wheaton resident since 1978. – Dave Diersen

— My critics/opponents have always been woke and they continue to be woke.

If I had been the aforesaid, they would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service long before I was 40 years old notwithstanding a) my not earning an MBA until I was 27, b) my not passing the CPA examination until I was 30, c) my not earning a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31, and d) my not passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination and becoming a licensed CPA util I was 32. – Dave Diersen

— According to Democrat and RINO leaders, minorities and females will never succeed in life unless they continue to benefit from Affirmative Action and DEI, that Is, unless they continue to get massive race and gender based preference.

My Democrat IRS superiors did not want me to audit IRS because I had learned a lot about IRS having worked for it for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year in today’s dollars and they had a) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and c) never promoted me beyond GS-12 even though I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. My Democrat IRS superiors wanted my Democrat GAO superiors to force me to suffer a $22,996 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer which they did. They wanted them to delay my promotions and never promote me beyond GS-13 which they did even though I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980 and passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination and became a licensed CPA in 1981. They wanted them to keep me off audits of IRS for as long as possible which they did. However, in 1986, the GAO manager who had arranged for my transfer was finally able to and did assign me to audits of IRS and to promote me to GS-13. But in 1987, they forced him to retire, and in 1989, they threw me off audits of IRS forever, gave me an very bad job assignment, gave me very unfair performance expectations, gave me a very unfair performance appraisal, and ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance (PFP) purposes. They never again assigned me to audits of IRS, they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for PFP purposes, and they forced me to retire in 1997 even though I had earned job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and a job-related master’s degree in 1997. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: White Evangelical Protestants are Trump’s largest backers with 81% supporting him, followed by white Catholics, 61%, then white mainline/non-Evangelical Protestants, 60%. Harris’s biggest backers are black Protestants, 83%, religiously unaffiliated people, 70%, and Hispanic Catholics, 61%. While Hispanic Catholics largely support Harris, Hispanic Christians of all types that attend church weekly swing to Trump, with 55% supporting him over 41% supporting Harris. The poll found several areas of overlap between white and Hispanic Protestants, the majority of both support Trump. The exodus of Christian Hispanics away from Catholicism toward Protestantism could help explain Trump’s increasing standing with Hispanics. Half of Hispanics are expected to be Protestant by 2030, a demographic that was once almost uniformly Catholic.)

They disallowed graduate evening business and accounting courses that I had taken at Loyola and DePaul. They disallowed them even though my employee manual encouraged me to take them. They falsely, outrageously, and unethically argued that the courses did not relate to my job duties, that they did not maintain or improve my job skills, that they qualified me for a new trade or business, and that I took them to get a job in the private sector. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

His firm analyzed more than 16,000 references from Trump, Vice President-elect JD Vance, and 40 key advisers to identify the top influencers who make up this pro-Trump network. Baron’s firm then separated them into three groups of influencers—amplifiers, specialists, and mavericks—who are categorically anti-establishment. He spoke with The Daily Signal about his firm’s groundbreaking research and how these powerful influencers will shape campaigns and policymaking in the future.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE
— What Trump’s Win Means For Labor And Employment Law (COMMENT: How has EEOC impacted you? When I was 22 years old in 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. My Firestone Store boss rudely fired me because I had accepted that offer. Because I had to have a job, I accepted a job offer from IRS.)
https://chiefexecutive.net/what-trumps-win-means-for-labor-and-employment-law/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Trump will likely tap current EEOC commissioner Andrea Lucas to serve as chair. As with the NLRB, however, Lucas will find herself outnumbered by Democratic members on the Commission, three to one – a situation that will likely continue for some time. Upon attaining a Republican majority, the Commission may seek to roll back the collection of workplace demographic data and limit the agency’s interpretation of Title VII regarding protection for LGBTQ+ workers. An EEOC under Trump likely will also take a narrower view of what’s permissible under DEI initiatives.)
EEOC
— Enforcement Guidance on Retaliation and Related Issues (COMMENT: My Democrat superiors in the federal government retaliated against me viciously because I complained about their discrimination. Of course, they used pretexts to justify the many big adverse actions that they took against me. I should write about that.)
https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/guidance/questions-and-answers-enforcement-guidance-retaliation-and-related-issues
(FROM THE POSTING: What if the employer claims its challenged action was not motivated by retaliation? In many cases, an employer will present a non-retaliatory reason for the challenged action. The employer may assert that it acted for a legitimate and unrelated reason such as poor job performance, misconduct, or the individual’s lack of qualifications for the job. An employee may respond to these assertions by providing evidence that the employer’s explanation is actually a pretext for retaliation. If an employer’s explanation is shown to be false, a factfinder may infer retaliation.)

PBS
— About 20% of Americans get their news from social media influencers (COMMENT: Since January 1, 2005, my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have included links to more than 500,000 articles. My critics/opponents do not like, if not despise, if not hate many, most, if not virtually all those articles, and especially those articles that promote the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. They want the Republican Party to dump those planks and dump those who support those planks. They destroy those like me who do not share their hatred against Trump. They destroy those like me who are not blindly loyal to them. They destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to coverup their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who continue to have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately.)

FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-RIGHT SOURCES
GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Since 2015, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters have ever-increasingly falsely demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being a Trump loyalist. They stress the many demographics that I share with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, healthy, married, non-poor, draft avoider, Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. However, they know full-well that I have always been loyal to the Republican Party platform, but not to any candidate, elected official, or party leader. My critics/opponents demand blind loyalty and destroy those like me who refuse to give it to them. I should write about my critics/opponents. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What are your critics/opponents loyal to? My Democrat superiors in the federal government were blindly loyal to the Democrat Party platform. They did everything that they could to waste the careers of and to get rid of their Republican employees and especially those who were conservative, White, male, older, healthy, married, non-poor, draft avoider, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors had been in America for a long time. I should write about my Democrat superiors in the federal government. While I opposed their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, I nevertheless carried out their direct orders to give preference to my Democrat subordinates who were minority, female, younger, disabled, unmarried, poor, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. But because that was not good enough for them, they wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997. I should write about my subordinates and the preference that I gave them. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How do your critics/opponents frame you, that is, defame you? Mine stress that I am conservative, Republican, White, male, older, married, non-poor, draft avoider, Protestant, German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, union member for almost 12 years, federal employee for almost 30 years, federal retiree for more than 27 years, Crete resident 1948-1972, Wheaton resident since 1978, etc. to defame me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. I should write about my critics/opponents. Better yet, I should sue them. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do your critics/opponents do? Mine do the following now or will do the following when the “come out” in the future: promote dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and/or Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, reparations, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How vulnerable are you? According to hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters, the more of the following that you are, the more vulnerable that you are: liberal/moderate, Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, RINO, minority, female, LGBTQ, veteran, unmarried, non-rich, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What is Trump’s position on GAO? GAO is less than a shell of what it once was. I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997. During that time, they used Republican-led budget cuts to get rid of GAO’s Republican employees like me who were conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. I would not have survived until 1997 if I had not a) earned a master’s degree in business in 1976, b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, d) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981, e) earned other job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and f) earned a master’s degree in finance in 1997. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Will Trump end Affirmative Action, DEI, and wokeism, that is, will Trump end race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination? If he does, it will have a tremendous impact on the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization. Far too many leaders of the aforesaid reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform. – Dave Diersen

I have been a federal retiree for more than 27 years. I have standing to have an opinion on how people view federal employees and federal retirees. People do not view federal employees and retirees favorably. Most commonly, people negatively stereotype federal employees as being overpaid, lazy, incompetent, inefficient, unmotivated, overly bureaucratic, and slow and as being so bad that they cannot get a job in the private sector. The aforesaid negative stereotyping constructively rendered my job-related bachelor’s degree, three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and professional license worthless. Most commonly, people negatively stereotype federal retirees as people whose retirement benefits are far too generous. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

The following helped me get promoted in 1972 (when I was 23 years old), 1973, 1974, and 1986. I completed graduate evening business courses starting in 1972 and earned an MBA in 1976. I completed graduate evening accounting courses starting in 1976 and earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979.

— More young men are struggling financially. Here’s how that helped Trump win. (COMMENT: Under the Democrats, the future for young men is ever-increasingly bleak. I once was a young man. The Democrats who ran the Post Office in 1966, IRS in 1971, and GAO in 1980 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. The aforesaid Democrats promoted me in 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1986. They erroneously anticipated/expected that I would become a Democrat. But if I was a young man today, the aforesaid Democrats would not hire or promote me today because they are under even more pressure from Democrat leaders to hire and promote Democrat females. All my female coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me were Democrats a) who had less work experience than I had, b) who had less education than I had, c) who had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or d) who had no professional license like the one I had.)

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house/3237318/trump-steps-up-battle-media-kill-press-act/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Her group had already issued a statement the morning after the election, criticizing Trump for “wanton attacks on journalists” and warning that his second administration could be a turning point for media freedom in the United States. Whether wanton or not, Trump has famously feuded with the press since his political career began eight years ago. He’s dubbed the media “fake news” and “the enemy of the people” while leading chants against reporters during his many political rallies. However, Trump arguably raised the temperature higher than ever this year. He made a dark joke earlier this month that a possible assassin would have to “shoot through the fake news” to get to him.)

Immigrant Justice Corps, meanwhile, is a New York-based charity that spent $20.2 million over the same period on a fellowship program placing recent college graduates at nonprofit organizations across the country to provide illegal migrants with legal services.)

They all were extremely loyal to the Democrat Party platform. Their top priority was wasting the careers of and getting rid of their Republican employees. I should write a book about that.)

— Democrat and RINO leaders say “Trump’s mass deportations would bring economic disaster.” Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly crow about their success in making America dependent on illegals to take bad jobs like the ones I took. I did yard work 1962-1964. I delivered newspapers 1962-1966. I washed dishes 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. Democrats and RINOs have declared a Second Civil War on Republicans. Illegals are soldiers in the Democrat/RINO Army.

— Musk, Ramaswamy vow ‘mass head-count reductions’ in U.S. government (COMMENT: The Democrats who ran GAO while I worked for them 1980-1997 used Republican-led budget cuts along with Affirmative Action, DEI, and up-or-out to waste the careers of and to get rid of the agency’s Republican employees who were conservative White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time.)

BUSINESS INSIDER
— Musk says people should worry less about the cost of having children and ‘start immediately’ (COMMENT: My wife and I had access to IVF. I should write a book about my Democrat GAO superiors who punished me the most because my wife and I gave up trying to have children without trying IVF, because we did not adopt, and because we did not become foster parents. They stressed that our health insurance covered IVF. They all had children and spouses who had little or no income. They all decried the time and money that it cost to raise children. They all 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 hinted/implied/argued/shouted that 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, or d) become a licensed CPA in 1981.)

— Pay Gap Narrows a Little, Following Raise Early This Year (COMMENT: I was a federal employee for almost 30 years. My critics/opponent have always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. In my defense, while I was a federal employee, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree, b) three job-related master’s degrees, c) six job-related professional certifications, and d) a job-relater professional license. I should write about my critics/opponents and what they did to qualify themselves for better paying jobs.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Federal employees now lag private sector employees in comparable jobs in pay by 24.72 percent on average, according to the latest figures from the Federal Salary Council—down from the 27.54 percent average it reported last autumn—following the average 5.2 percent average raise paid at the start of this year.)

EDUCATION WEEK
— What a National School Choice Program Under President Trump Might Look Like. His pick for education secretary has spoken favorably of school choice for years, and there’s more GOP support for it than ever. (COMMENT: My parents sent me to Missouri Synod Lutheran Grade Schools and that had a tremendous impact on me. That put me on a track to take college preparatory courses in high school, to get an ACT score of 24, to graduate in the upper 20% of my class, to earn a bachelor’s degree, to earn three master’s degrees, to earn six professional certifications, to earn a professional license, etc. But my parents had less money because they sent my brother and me to Missouri Synod Lutheran Grade Schools. I had to work my way through college.)
