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

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

However, sweeping job cuts under the Trump administration, led by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, are rapidly dismantling this essential pathway to the middle class. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire so that they could and they did give my Black subordinate my job and my preferred corner office.

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

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

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

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

— An 1883 Act is protecting federal workers from DOGE’s firing spree. Democrat and RINO leaders reject the Pendleton Act. For them, government exists to hire, to retain, and to promote Democrats and RINOs.
https://www.nprillinois.org/2025-03-23/an-1883-act-is-protecting-federal-workers-from-doges-firing-spree
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Starting in 1883, there came a series of reforms, culminating in the Pendleton Act, which established civil service and a merit system for persons competing for jobs. . .The Pendleton Act banned the hiring of relatives, donors and other supporters for a certain class of federal jobs that required special knowledge or skills. It also banned the firing of employees for political reasons. At first, the act covered just 10% of federal jobs, but it expanded to encompass the vast majority.)

The Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997 wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran.

— What are the biggest differences between the Democrat and Republican Parties? The Democrat Party requires its leaders to defend and advance all the planks its platform. The Republican Party not only does not do that, it lets it leaders who reject planks in the Republican Party platform destroy those Republicans who support those planks. The more planks in the Republican Party platform that you reject, the more of a RINO that you are. I should write about those RINO leaders of the following who reject the most planks: Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party (IRP). Most commonly, they reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. I would focus on those RINO leaders who have had their operatives and dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately including a) ending my membership in the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee last year and b) ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. Which planks in the Republican Party platform do you support? Ever-increasingly, the more planks in the Republican Party platform that you support, the more that Democrats and RINOs do to destroy you. I support all the planks in the Republican Party platform, including its personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. RINOs reject some, many, most, virtually all, if not all the planks in the Republican Party platform. Because I support the aforesaid planks, the following have taken many big adverse actions against me since 2000: past and present a) RINO leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party (IRP), b) RINO leaders of Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, and c) RINO conservative and religious leaders and activists. I should write about the aforesaid RINOs. I would focus on the aforesaid RINOs who had their operatives and dupes a) end my membership in the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee last year and b) end my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. – Dave Diersen

— Republicans should be advised that Democrat and RINO employers use up-or-out to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their Republicans employees. The Democrats who run the federal government use use-or-out to get rid of their Republican employees who they did not promote to GS-13 ($117,807/year) by age 25, GS-14 ($139,211/year) by age 30, GS-15 ($163,749/year) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($195,200/year) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. My Democrat superiors in the federal government never promoted me beyond GS-13 and did not promote me to GS-13 until I was 38. They would never have promoted me to GS-13 if I had not a) earned job-related master’s degrees when I was 27 and 31, b) earned job-related professional licenses when I was 30 and 32, and c) earned a job-related professional license when I was 32. – Dave Diersen

Democrat leaders want the aforesaid because they vote for Democrats. RINO leaders want the aforesaid because RINOs want cheap labor. – Dave Diersen

NATIONAL LAW REVIEW
— Political Affiliation Discrimination: Know Your Rights Anticipate/expect that Democrat and RINO employers will ever-increasingly a) not hire Republicans and b) get rid of their Republican employees. Democrat employers hire Democrats. RINO employers hire RINOs. The federal government is a Democrat employer.
https://natlawreview.com/article/political-affiliation-discrimination-know-your-rights
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The increased interest in this topic comes amid a highly charged political environment and the decision by the Trump Administration to terminate the employment of civil service employees across a wide array of government agencies. Additionally, many employees are unclear about their rights and obligations as their employers are retreating from commitments to corporate diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in response to the Administration’s aggressive efforts to eradicate DEI initiatives. These actions have left many employees in a state of confusion regarding their rights around these issues. Legal protections for discrimination based on political affiliation vary widely based on state law. Below is a broad overview of employment protections across the United States, but as these can vary even by local jurisdiction, contacting an employment attorney with specific questions about your legal protections may be the best course of action. . .There are currently no federal protections for private sector employees from workplace discrimination based solely on political affiliation. If you are a federal employee and you believe that you have been discriminated against because of your political affiliation, you may be entitled to some protections under the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 (CRSA). Learn more on KBK’s political affiliation discrimination practice as it relates to federal workers here. If you are a federal employee looking for legal support services regarding recent federal government layoffs, see KBK’s Federal Employment Resources page here.)
WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Why Many Americans Are On Board With Federal Worker Firings. Some envision bloat and cushy jobs. ‘Let ’em go; get rid of them.’ Who do you know who is/was a federal employee? I was a federal employee for almost 30 years. Who do you know who is/was a federal retiree? I have been a federal retiree for more than 27 years. I should write about my critics/opponents who say that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican and who despise/hate federal employees and federal retirees the most. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would not have become a postal employee in 1966 if my high school friend had not asked me to join him in taking the postal employment examination. I would not have become an IRS employee in 1971 if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

LINKEDIN
— Overcoming Ageism at Any Career Stage. Democrat and RINO employers use up-or-out, that is, age discrimination, to waste the careers of their Republican employees and to get rid of them. To fight that, a) I earned an MBA when I was 27, a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, and a master’s degree in finance when I was 48, b) I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt when I was 30 and 32, c) I became a licensed CPA when I was 32, and d) I earned additional job-related professional licenses when I was 41, 45, 47, and 48. The Democrats who run the federal government use up-or-out to get rid of their Republican employees who they do not promote to GS-13 ($117,807/year) by age 25, GS-14 ($139,211/year) by age 30, GS-15 ($163,749/year) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($195,200/year) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 in 1986.

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— Many federal employees ordered to submit recent accomplishments. GAO audits IRS.

I would also have stressed how they wasted what I had learned a) earning master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance and b) passing the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt.

While I walk my precinct, I will get a measure of the success that hate-filled Trump-hating Trump haters have had promoting more hatred against Trump.

Because I had to have a job, I accepted a job offer from IRS.

— A front page top of fold article in today’s USA TODAY is titled “How Trump and Musk made federal employees America’s favorite punching bag. Why do Americans hate federal employees? Musk and Trump are stoking long-running resentment of the federal government and civil servants for their own political purposes.” I should write a book about how people view/treat federal employees and federal retirees. I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and I have been a federal retiree for more than 27 years. Of course, in my book, I would use as examples how my critics/opponents in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois have viewed/treated me. Of course, they deny my having been a federal employee and my being a federal retiree have anything to do with it. I would focus on my critics/opponents who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout and who have had their operatives and dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately. – Dave Diersen

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: How Trump and Musk made federal employees America’s favorite punching bag. Why do Americans hate federal employees? Musk and Trump are stoking long-running resentment of the federal government and civil servants for their own political purposes. I should write a book about how people view/treat federal employees and federal retirees. I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and I have been a federal retiree for more than 27 years. Of course, in my book, I would use as examples how my critics/opponents in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois viewed/treated me. Of course, they deny my having been a federal employee and my being a federal retiree have anything to do with it. I would focus on my critics/opponents who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout and who have had their operatives and dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately.

My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were beyond furious I got not only my own desk, but a preferred corner office in a new building in 1990. But that all ended in 1997 when my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire and gave my office to my Black subordinate.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I mean, here’s Elon Musk, working for literally nothing, giving up literally billions of dollars for his activism and his patriotism, and all he is doing is saving our country,” said Mark Rice, a Republican who ran in the 2024 election to represent Illinois’ 8th Congressional District. . .Calls for protests and boycotts of Tesla have revved up across the country with reports of vandalism against Tesla vehicles and dealerships. . .The DuPage County GOP chairman released a statement on the protest, saying, “It is ridiculous that the DuPage Democrats are harassing and intimidating a local business that has contributed significantly to the Village of Lisle’s economy. This is why the Democratic Party has the lowest approval ratings that it has had since there has been polling. We are not long removed from violent protests and looting that destroyed businesses across the suburbs. Of late, Tesla locations have been vandalized across America. This thinly veiled attempt by DuPage Democrats to cancel and scare a local business over political differences is repugnant. Americans are done with it and, increasingly, done with the Democratic Party.”)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Pentagon is cutting up to 60,000 civilian jobs. About a third of those took voluntary resignations. During the 1980s and 1990s, because of Republican budget cuts, the Democrats who ran GAO cut 3,000 jobs or half of GAO’s workforce. Even though they focused on cutting their Republican employees who were White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time, I nevertheless survived until 1997. I would not have survived that long if I had not a) earned job-related master’s degrees in 1997 (finance), 1980 (accounting), and 1976 (business), b) earned job-related professional certifications in 1997 (forensic accounting), 1996 (financial services auditing), 1994 (government financial management), 1990 (fraud examination), 1981 (internal auditing), and 1979 (accounting), and c) earned a job-related professional license in 1981 (CPA).
