CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DD: To get more votes from women, Democrat leaders ever-increasingly shout at women that Republicans cause all the problems that women have, and especially Republicans who share Trump’s demographics: conservative, White, male, older, married, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time.

— Return of military conscription. DD: My avoiding the Vietnam War draft with four student deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971 was my biggest mistake. My Democrat superiors and supervisors in the federal government who were veterans blamed Republicans for America losing the Vietnam War and they especially blamed 1-A Republicans like me. All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, some, many, most, and at times, virtually all of my superiors and supervisors were Democrat veterans. What if I had tried to enlist? I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness.

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— VA drops appeal in Supreme Court case, giving another 1.2 million vets extra education benefits. DD: My critics/opponent stress that Republican leaders sided with GAO in Diersen v. GAO. That is, they sided with Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, they sided with race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and national origin discrimination.

DAILY HERALD
— Medical debt. DD: What did you do to avoid medial debt. I always assured that I had health insurance. The federal government paying 72% of my health insurance premiums 1966-1969 and since 1971 and paying 72% of my wife’s health care premiums since 1978 helped me endure tremendous efforts by my Democrat superiors to waste my career and to get rid of me.

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— MARCH 27, 2023 FLASHBACK: Declaring that generations of “failed politicians” have “failed to invest” in Chicago’s people, mayoral hopeful Brandon Johnson vowed to set a new course that would boost funding for mental health, housing, job training and other social services programs, “primarily (by) asking wealthy corporations to pay their fair share.” DD: What would your critics/opponents say you failed at? My critics/opponents would say I failed at a) being a Post Office, Firestone Store, IRS, and GAO employee, b) Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter Executive Committee member, c) holder of master’s degrees in business, accounting and finance, c) CPA, Certified Internal Auditor, licensed CPA, and certified fraud examiner, government financial manager, financial services auditor, and forensic accountant, d) FINRA arbitrator, e) conservative activist, Republican Precinct Committeeman, GOPUSA Illinois Editor, Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, Pat O’Malley for governor Milton Township primary campaign coordinator, Illinois Center Right Coalition officer, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, Illinois Republican Party State Convention committee member, e) filer of grievances, arbitration demands, and lawsuits, f) etc. I should write about my critics/opponents, the criteria that they use to deem me a failure, and the adverse actions that they have taken against me and why.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— POSTMARK PANIC: Democratic and Republican leaders across the state are intensifying their get-out-the-vote efforts in the final stretch before Tuesday’s primaries, warning that changes to postal service procedures could jeopardize some mail-in ballots. Getting the word out: They are holding press conferences, sending out broadcasts and warning that turnout could be dampened. The push reflects growing anxiety about a recent change in how the U.S. Postal Service applies postmarks — now stamping the date when mail is processed at a sorting facility rather than when it’s dropped in a mailbox. Officials worry ballots mailed close to Election Day get postmarked after the deadline and therefore won’t be counted even if mailed on time. Under attack: Illinois Democratic Party Chair Lisa Hernandez called the change part of a “targeted attack” on voting rights by the Trump administration and urged voters “act now” to return their ballots. Red alert: The Illinois Republican Party, meanwhile, has sent out a red “Vote By Mail Alert” urging voters to “go to the Post Office counter and request a manual postmark.” Of particular concern in rural Illinois, where voters “rely on mail-in voting and don’t live near a polling place,” said Democratic Congresswoman Nikki Budzinski, who represents a swath of central and southern Illinois in Congress. Complicating rights: Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul warned that last-minute mailing could make voting more complicated for residents who already face barriers to participating in elections. “Changes like this risk making voting confusing for people who already face barriers to participating in elections,” Raoul said in a statement. DD: How many have voted so far in Illinois, in your county, in your township, in your municipality, and in your precinct? How many Democrat, Republican, and NA ballots have been cast so far? Who does not want the aforesaid information to be reported and why?

— State Paying Kaplan for Test Preparation Courses. DD: What government help did you get to pass tests? I got no government help to help me pass the ACT in 1966, postal employment test in 1966, Federal Service Entrance Examination and GMAT in 1970, CPA examination in 1979, or Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981. According to my critics/opponents I passed the aforesaid because I benefitted from discrimination against those who had less money than I had and/or did not share my demographics, that is, those who are libera/moderate, non-Republican, minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, and/or non-citizen. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college.

— Sheriff Receiving $195,000 State Grant to Buy Body Cameras. DD: Democrat leaders ever-increasingly promote more hatred against Trump. They ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that to punish Trump, you should punish your Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC). Should RPCs wear body cameras when they go door-to-door distributing Republican election materials in their precincts? Because of an encounter I had recently with a registered Democrat voter (RDV) in my precinct, I am changing what I do. What have RDVs shouted at you lately? I am happy to report that only one RDV in my precinct shouted threats at me while I hand-delivered envelopes recently to the 400 residences in my precinct that have at least one registered Republican voter (RRV) or one registered NA voter (RNAV) without knocking on any doors. But he is an aggressive, nasty, wealthy, and prominent realtor with a common name in a $1.1 million home. He shouted at me in a very threatening tone that he had thrown my envelope in his trash, that I should not deliver anything there anymore, that he knew who I was, that he knew where I lived, and that if I ever delivered anything there again, he would come to my home and dump it on my driveway. While I did not realize who he was until after the incident, he had known who I was for many years. He had been a RDV in my precinct very near my home years ago. I now know that after he sold that home, he bought the aforesaid home. I delivered to his home only because there was a RNAV in his home. To avoid future threats from RDVs like him, I will identify those homes in my precinct that have RNAVs but not deliver to those homes that also have RDVs but no RRVs, something I did not take the time to do this time. There are limits on the time that I can spend. I spend 10+ hours a day 7 days a week putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out. I spent many hours putting 800 mailing labels and 400 return address labels on 400 envelopes, putting them into walk order, stuffing them with an unmarked sample ballot, a Milton Township Republican Organization Voter Guide, and five candidate campaign literature pieces, dividing them into 5 batches, and hand-delivering them. I used 400 DuPage County Republican Central Committee envelopes and I used my photocopier, paper, and ink to copy the unmarked sample ballot 400 times 2-sided back-to-back. If I spent 6 minutes getting each envelope ready, that would be 40 hours. I spent about 15 hours hand-delivering the envelopes, or about 3 hours per batch. Should I write about an extremely powerful RRV in my precinct who also told me that she threw my precinct letter in her trash?

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— What do your critics/opponents hold you accountable for, that is, what do they blame you for? First and foremost, my critics/opponents blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000. They will blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all the losses that candidates in contested primary races on the ballot in my precinct will suffer on March 17. Previously, they also blamed me for what I did as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, c) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, d) an Illinois Center Right Coalition officer 2003-2007, and e) the Milton Township coordinator for Pat O’Malley’s gubernatorial primary campaign in 2002. Needless-to-say, the aforesaid discourages me from attending religious, conservative, and Republican meetings and events. – Dave Diersen

— Why don’t Republican candidates want me to help elect them? According to my critics/opponents, the more that I do to help elect candidates, the fewer votes that they will get. My critics/opponents stress the success that they have had getting their operatives and their dupes to take adverse actions against me including a) ending my membership on the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024, b) ending my role as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, c) gerrymandering my precinct in 2015, d) ending my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, e) ending my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, f) ending my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007, g) almost getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters on 2006, h) ending my bid to serve as the MTRO treasurer in 2004, i) etc. – Dave Diersen

DD: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, they ever-increasingly put Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI ahead of everything else.

I am all of the aforesaid. They would have gotten rid of me much sooner if I had not a) earned an MBA in 1976, a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, and a master’s degree in finance in 1997, b) passed on my first attempt the CPA examination in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor Examination in 1981, c) became a licensed CPA in 1981, and d) earned job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997.

CPA JOURNAL
— Broadening the Pipeline in a Changing Environment. DD: Choosing the right college major is extremely important. I should have majored in accounting from the beginning, but I did not until I was 27 in 1976 when I started taking graduate evening accounting courses at DePaul. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul when I was 31. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32. I became a licensed CPA when I was 32. But by then, the accounting profession had no interest in me a) because it viewed me as being too old and b) because my demographics were terrible. The profession was under tremendous pressure to advance minorities and females. Why didn’t I major in accounting from the beginning? I erroneously believed that because I was not strong in math, I could never pass the CPA examination. But I belatedly came to realize that accountants do not use the types of math that I was not strong in.
