— Employers want cheap labor. My critics/opponents have always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. In today’s dollars, I earned a) $12.41/hour 1964-1966, b) $18.99-$20.25/hour 1966-1969, c) $54,728-$110,020/year 1971-1980, and d) $87,024-$150,075/year 1980-1997. In my defense, I earned a) a high school diploma in 1966, b) a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970, c) job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, d) job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and e) a job-related professional license in 1981.

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.)

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.)

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/disgusting-ex-gop-rep-shreds-elon-musk-s-dangerous-attack-on-civil-service/ar-AA1uSZTX
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) slammed tech billionaire and Donald Trump ally Elon Musk for publicly naming examples of government employees he will target for elimination. “Shame on anyone who doesn’t have a problem with the wealthiest man on the planet publicly sharing the individual names of government employees he wants fired,” wrote Walsh, who went from being a Tea Party activist to one of the most outspoken conservative opponents of Trump. “Calling them out by name. Disgusting. Dangerous.” Musk, who helped Trump run critical sections of his campaign in the election and now heads up a MAGA task force on how to cut government spending, made the threats against specific employees earlier this week, according to CNN.)
— Is this the list of federal employees whom Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy may fire? Here’s the truth. (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, I was always on their fire lists. In today’s dollars I earned $150,075/year when I was 49, $110,020/year when I was 31, $97,079/year when I was 25, $54,728/year when I was 22, and $18.09/hour when I was 16.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The viral list stemmed from X and DOGE has not issued any such list. The information shared on the screenshot are also from government records. For example, an X post said, “Nancy Pelosi’s niece should not be paid $181,648.00 by the US Taxpayer to be the ‘Climate Advisor’ at HUD.”)

— Musk’s DOGE May Cut These Federal Agencies (COMMENT: Republicans ever-increasingly cut GAO while I worked for the Democrats who ran the agency 1980-1997. They ever-increasingly took their anger at Republicans out on me, one of the few Republicans in the agency. I should write a book about that. They forced me to suffer a $22,996 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. They delayed my promotions and never promote me beyond GS-13 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 keep me off audits of IRS until 1986 when the GAO manager who had arranged for my transfer was finally able to 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.)

— 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 Democrat superiors in the federal government always gave priority treatment big time to their Democrat employees 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.

— My critics/opponents have always been woke and they continue to be woke. They continue to promote dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of second amendment rights, and 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. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What if my Democrat superiors in the federal government had not had Affirmative Action and DEI to use against me, that is, what if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or if my ancestors had not been in America for a long time? 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
http://www.gopillinois.com
— 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. According to Democrat and RINO leaders, that is because Republicans continue to discriminate against minorities and females, and especially Republicans who are conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. – Dave Diersen

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— IRS Enforcement Money Has Unexpected $20 Billion Hole. Biden administration officials rush to address quirk in congressional funding before they leave office. (COMMENT: Democrats run GAO and IRS and GAO audits IRS. I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 in 1980. 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.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— Five things to make the Air Force, which has struggled with wokeness, recruitment, and declining standards, great again. (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, the agency ever-increasingly declined. The agency ever-increasingly dumped meritocracy. Its top priority ever-increasingly became 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. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless my work experience, my three master’s degrees, my six professional certifications, and my professional license.)
https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/11/lets-make-the-air-force-academy-soar-once-more/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Whether it’s the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff stating in a congressional hearing that he hopes to understand his “white rage,” or an official memorandum about establishing “aspirational” race and sex quotas for officers, it’s clear that partisan ideology has supplanted competency as the defining attribute of our current military’s leaders. Nowhere has this leftward shift been more apparent than at the United States Air Force Academy and its newfound obsession with indoctrinating cadets in woke, anti-American ideology.

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

— 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

— Democrats say “Trump chooses loyalist Pam Bondi for attorney general pick after Matt Gaetz withdraws.” 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, 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.)

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.)

— 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.)

— Meet the charities spending millions to stop illegal immigrants from being deported
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/investigations/3238077/charities-spending-millions-stop-illegal-immigrants-deported/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: La Raza Community Resource Center, an immigration nonprofit organization based out of San Francisco, was one of the biggest spenders among the groups resisting deportation efforts, disbursing $14.1 million between 2021 and 2023 for a program providing legal services to asylum-seekers and migrants facing deportation. 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.)
NEW YORK POST
— Critics of President-elect Trump’s plan to enlist the military to help deport illegal immigrants claim it will violate the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878. But that might not be the case. The 146-year-old PCA says that “except [as] expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress,” whoever “willfully uses any part of the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Air Force, or the Space Force as a posse comitatus … to execute the laws shall be fined … or imprisoned.”

To the extent needed, other federal law enforcement agencies should be immediately directed by the president to help DHS agents.

There are 1,073 registered voters in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton. 890 (83%) voted. 373 voted for Trump and 477 voted for Harris.

Republican candidates got more votes than the Democrat candidates did in all but 2 (president and one of the judicial races) of the 13 races. I hand-delivered a) a copy of the sample ballot and campaign literature to the 400 residences in my precinct that had at least one Republican or Independent registered voter and then b) a note from the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) to the 24 residences that had at least one registered Republican voter who had not yet returned their mail-in ballot.

My critics/opponents reject planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.

Because of that, they have always been insulated from the negative impacts of the following: dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and 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. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have personally benefitted the most from Affirmative Action and DEI. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately. – Dave Diersen

— What was the turnout in your precinct? There are 1,073 registered voters in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton. 890 (83%) voted. 373 voted for Trump and 477 voted for Harris. Between 661 and 425 voted for the other 12 Republican candidates on the ballot. Those candidates got more votes than the Democrat candidates did in all but 2 (president and one of the judicial races) of the 13 races. I hand-delivered a) a copy of the sample ballot and campaign literature to the 400 residences in my precinct that had at least one Republican or Independent registered voter and then b) a note from the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) to the 24 residences that had at least one registered Republican voter who had not yet returned their mail-in ballot. What information would you like to get from your Republican Precinct Committeeman/Captain? I will be hand-delivering to the aforesaid 400 residences the aforesaid information plus information on the upcoming December 3 MTRO Caucus and the April 1 local election. – Dave Diersen

— Given that the federal government has always been run by Democrats who hate Republicans, one could ask why did I became a federal employee. I became a part-time postal employee when I was 18 years old in 1966 because I needed money to pay for my college expenses. I had taken and passed the postal employment examination because my high school friend had suggested that I join him in doing that. I became an IRS employee in 1971 because I needed a job. I had taken and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination as a fallback if I could not get a good job in the automotive industry. I needed a job because I was helping support my mother and brother because my father had suddenly died. My Firestone Store boss had fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile had withdrawn that offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. I became a GAO employee in 1980 because of GAO’s mission and because of its claimed nonpartisanship. I had recently earned an MBA from Loyola and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. Once you become a federal employee, it is almost impossible to get a good job in the private sector. Private sector employers look down on and have an extremely low opinion of government employees. – Dave Diersen

— Displaced Aggression. Because Trump won, anticipate/expect that hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters will ever-increasingly promote more hatred against those like me who do not share their hatred against Trump. I should write about the ever-increasing examples that I am seeing. I am especially vulnerable because I am the GOPUSA Illinois Editor and an elected Republican Precinct Committeeman. I am especially vulnerable because I share so many demographics with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and our ancestor have been in America for a long time. My critics/opponents would have killed me by now if I had ever given any money to Trump. – Dave Diersen

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Vance defends tattooed Hegseth
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2024/nov/16/jd-vance-defends-tattooed-pete-hegseth/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In response, Mr. Vance slammed the outlet for going after the Trump administration’s nominee. “They’re attacking Pete Hegseth for having a Christian motto tattooed on his arm,” he said on X. “This is disgusting anti-Christian bigotry from the AP, and the entire organization should be ashamed of itself.”)
— An official at FBI headquarters in Washington is warning that the bureau’s security clearance division is politicized and can’t be trusted to screen President-elect Donald Trump’s nominees for top administration jobs. (COMMENT: IRS has always been politicized. To get rid of me, the Democrats who ran IRS disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974 and disallowed my education deductions in 1978. They never promoted me beyond GS-12. GAO has always been politicized. To get rid of me, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take a $22,996/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, they delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, they kept off audits of IRS except for 3 years, they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and they forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat.)

It’s a maladaptive pattern that could stem from learned behavior—that is, witnessing others do this in childhood. It may also arise from unresolved emotional issues.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois educators can brag about record graduation rates, but the sad fact is the state is graduating students that are the least prepared they’ve ever been for life in the working world. Just 31% of high schoolers scored proficient in reading on the SAT in 2024. For black students, it was only 12%. And white student proficiency fell a whopping 9.5 percentage points from 2017, to just 42%. Math results for 2024 were even more abysmal, with high school SAT proficiencies hitting post-2017 lows across all major demographics. A mere 7% of black students and just 26% of all students statewide were proficient in math on the SAT.)

— Trump must take action against ‘untouchable’ bureaucrats (COMMENT: A big reason why I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 in 1980 was that GAO claimed to be nonpartisan. I soon learned that claim was patently false. I soon learned that GAO’s Chicago office was run by liberal/nasty/vicious Democrats who hated Republicans and especially hated Republicans who shared my demographics: conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, had ancestors who had been in America for a long time, non-poor, childless, former executive branch employee, former union member, etc. They did everything that they could to waste my career and to get rid of me, but I nevertheless survived for almost 18 years. I would not have survived for that long if I had not a) earned job-related master’s degrees in 1980 (accounting) and in 1997 (finance), b) earned job-related professional certifications in 1981 (internal auditing), 1990 (fraud examination), 1994 (government financial management), 1996 (financial services auditing), and 1997 (forensic accounting), and c) earned a job related professional license (CPA) in 1981.)
https://www.theblaze.com/columns/opinion/trump-must-take-action-against-untouchable-bureaucrats
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The president has the constitutional authority to fire anyone from the executive branch — including ‘independent’ agencies. An estimated 2.2 million civilian federal workers serve at the pleasure of the president, despite only 4,000 being designated as political appointees. Donald Trump’s first priority as he prepares to retake office must be to establish that he can fire any of them. Whether they hold political appointments, Senate-confirmed positions, or civil service roles, all federal employees are subject to the president’s authority to terminate their employment. This includes workers in any department or so-called “independent” agency. If a congressional statute conflicts with his authority to fire someone, that statute is unconstitutional and must yield to the president’s plenary firing authority. Ironically, Trump’s biggest failure in his first term was his reluctance to say his famous line, “You’re fired!” To succeed in a second term, he must remove anyone who does not share his campaign vision. His primary promises are to reduce inflation and eliminate the deep state. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is already challenging both promises, presenting Trump with an early test of his resolve.

— I never sought any internships because I had to work my way through college. I delivered mail for the Park Forest Post Office while I was a UIC student 1966-1968 and then a NIU student in 1969. One of my NIU roommates had wealthy parents who got him an internship at a big CPA firm. He got hired by that firm and soon became a partner. I should have majored in accounting. I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 29. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 30. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. By then, because of my bad demographics, I was viewed as being much too old to have a successful career in accounting.

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: Candidates line up for Naperville, Wheaton school board elections
https://www.dailyherald.com/20241113/news/candidates-line-up-for-naperville-wheaton-school-board-elections/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: District 200 Six people — including three incumbents — already have declared their candidacies for four board seats up for election next year. Board President Rob Hanlon as well as sitting board members Angela Blatner and John Rutledge are running again. The other candidates are Katy Ebbesen, Brooke Gennaro and Amy Erkenswick. Last year, Erkenswick ran in a high-profile race with a slate of school board challengers who argued parents ought to have a greater say over their children’s education, who raised objections to graphic content in school libraries and who had green campaign signs. Erkenswick finished just 33 votes shy of winning a seat on the board. Rutledge, a former Wheaton city councilman, bested one of the slate members to secure a 2-year board position. Hanlon was first elected to the board in 2017. “Since the referendum passed, I want to see that work through,” said Hanlon, referring to voters’ approval of a plan to issue $151.5 million in bonds for significant upgrades to Edison, Franklin and Monroe middle schools. Noting the number of candidates, Hanlon said he expects “it’ll be a healthy debate.” “I think when you have more candidates involved, who are focused on kids, you have a better election, and the community benefits and the students benefit,” Hanlon said.)

— What do you hope that Trump will focus on? I hope that he will focus on promoting personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, enforcement of immigration laws, discouragement of pot, defending Second Amendment rights, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). I hope that he focuses on discouraging the promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and 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. – Dave Diersen

— Nationwide, the majority of voters have dumped the Democrat Party platform and have embraced the Republican Party platform, but not yet in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, and my precinct. It remains to be seen if the following will dump “Democrat Lite” and start promoting the Republican Party platform: a) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) Republican leaders of Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) conservative leaders and activists, and d) religious leaders and activists. – Dave Diersen

I should start writing about those who dominate MTRO. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. – Dave Diersen

The success that those who dominate the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) have had in discouraging everyone from reading my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters was beyond obvious at MTRO’s meeting yesterday evening. – Dave Diersen

Of course, I was on all those purge lists and not only because I was Republican, but because a) I did not fill any of their Affirmative Action and DEI quotas, goals, or targets, b) because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and c) because I became the office’s only active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.
