FOX32
— Brandon Johnson praises court order blocking Trump’s federal job cuts. A judge on Friday halted Trump’s plan to cut federal jobs. Johnson calls it a win for workers. Virtually all federal employees are Democrats. Democrats run the federal government. They use budget cuts first to get rid of any remining Republican employees and then to get rid of any remaining non-Democrat employees who are White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. That is what happened at GAO 1980-1997 in response to Gingrich budget cuts. I should write about that. Because I am all of the aforesaid, because I complained about discrimination, and because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with discrimination in 1988, I never would have survived those 18 years if I had not a) earned job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, b) earned job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and c) earned a job-related professional license in 1981.

— The mainstream news media is nothing more than a mouthpiece for Democrat leaders and for other hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters. – Dave Diersen

— Sooner or later, everything will come out in the wash. Sooner or later, it will become clear that all my critics/opponents a) reject some, many, most, virtually all, if not all of the planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly, its 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, b) 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 dudes, who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money, c) blame me for all of their problems, your problems, my problems, and everyone’s problems, and/or d) despise/hate those who share my demographics. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have had their operatives and their dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately. – Dave Diersen

— I should write a book about Wheaton Independence Day parades since 1978. I would focus on Republican participation in the parades. I would focus on those who have worked the hardest to diminish/end Republican participation. I served as the Republican fundraiser for the parades 2005-2021. I would focus on those who had their operatives and their dupes end what I did. I have urged the Milton Township Republican Organization to encourage Republican candidates for U.S. Senate, U.S. Congress District 3, Illinois statewide offices, Illinois senate, Illinois house, DuPage countywide offices, DuPage County District 4, etc. to participate in this year’s parade. In 2007, I succeeded in raising $2,000 on short notice so that an elephant could walk behind U.S. Congressman Peter Roskam. SEE: https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/july-4-evening-edition-2/ and https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/july-4-2023/  – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— JULY 5, 2017 FLASHBACK: Republicans who participated in Wheaton’s outstanding Independence Day Parade this morning were: DuPage State’s Attorney Bob Berlin; DuPage County District 4 officials Grant Eckhoff, Tim Elliott, Amy Grant, and Tim Whelan; James Mendrick for DuPage Sheriff; Frank Bibbianno for DuPage Sheriff; Karen Wilson for DuPage Judge; and the Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC).  Republicans who walked with entries included Ron Almiron, Lori Carlson, Joseph Caruso, Flo Dangelo, Sal Falbo, Chris Heidorn, Pat Hinchey, Marty Keller, Larry LaVanway, Antonio Lollino, Paula McGowen, Ron Menna, David Norck, Thommen Poozhikunnel, Mary Rash, Pat Ryan, and Janet Shaw. Gary Muehlfelt drove the truck that pulled the outstanding MTRCC float. Peter Breen, Mike Connelly, and Jeanne Ives could not participate in the parade because of the Democrats.  Peter Roskam participated in a different parade. This year, for the 12th year in a row, “DuPage Republicans” helped sponsor the parade and fireworks. “DuPage Republicans” was one of the two $2,500 “Star” sponsors and again sponsored the Wheaton high school bands and the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums parade entries.  Because of a last minute shortage of banner carriers, I had the honor of helping carry the “Sponsored by DuPage Republicans” banner ahead of the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums. Outstandingly, again this year Tim Whelan coordinated Republican use of the “DuPage Republicans” booth at the fireworks. This year again, I delivered flyers to the residences and businesses on the parade route. The flyers listed the Republican entries in the parade and the Republicans who helped sponsor entries. Outstandingly, the flyers were printed courtesy of Alpha Graphics. This year, outstandingly, Roger Claar is a $500 contributor, Chris Nybo is a $250 contributor, Phil Suess is a $150 contributor, and Bob Berlin, Peter Breen, Mike Connelly, Grant Eckhoff, Tim Elliott, Amy Grant, Gwen Henry, Paul Hinds, Jeanne Ives, Marty Keller, Deanne Mazzochi, Paula McGowen, James Mendrick, Peter Roskam, Darlene Ruscitti, and Tim Whelan are $100 contributors. Please thank them for helping sponsor the parade and fireworks. This year was the 10th anniversary of an elephant walking behind Roskam in the parade.  For that 2007 parade, I had the honor of raising $2,000 on short notice from DuPage Republicans to sponsor that elephant. – Dave Diersen

FOX NEWS
— Trump says tax raises are ‘good politics,’ dismissing GOP critics. My critics/opponents have always wanted me to pay more taxes. According to them, I can and should pay more taxes a) because I avoided the Vietnam War draft, b) because I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, and c) because my wife and I gave up trying to have children. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents were wealthy and who bought them cars, paid for their colleges expenses, and got them jobs. I would focus on those who benefitted the most from Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, who benefitted the most from race and gender based preference giving.

— Trump’s DEI crackdown increasingly makes Democrat and RINO employers worried about lawsuits. Because Democrats have always controlled the courts, my Democrat superiors in the federal government were never concerned about lawsuits against them from their Republican employees. Actually, they welcomed such lawsuits against them, if not encouraged such lawsuits against them. You would see that if you would read the documents in Diersen v. GAO https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf  According to them, in that lawsuit, the courts ruled that federal employers can use the following to waste the careers of and to get rid of their Republican employees who are White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, and/or German American: budget cuts, up-or-out, and/or Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. My Democrat superiors crow that they succeeded in destroying a Republican federal employee who had a) three job-related master’s degrees, b) six job-related professional certifications, and c) a job-related professional license. – Dave Diersen

I share all of the aforesaid demographics with Trump. I should write about my critics/opponents and the many big adverse actions that they have had their operatives and their dupes take against me since 2015. 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. – Dave Diersen

I earned job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48. I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48. I earned a job-related professional license when I was 32. To advance, my coworkers glorified and praised their superiors and supervisors, pandered to their superiors and supervisors, and served as operatives or dupes for their superiors and supervisors. They helped their superiors get rid of their Republican coworkers 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. – Dave Diersen

I earned job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48. I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48. I earned a job-related professional license when I was 32. To advance, my coworkers glorified and praised their superiors and supervisors, pandered to their superiors and supervisors, and served as operatives or dupes for their superiors and supervisors. They helped their superiors get rid of their Republican coworkers 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.

BUSINESS JOURNAL
— Trump’s DEI crackdown increasingly makes Democrat and RINO employers worried about lawsuits. Because Democrats have always controlled the courts, my Democrat superiors in the federal government were never concerned about lawsuits against them from their Republican employees. Actually, they welcomed such lawsuits against them, if not encouraged such lawsuits against them. You would see that if you would read the documents in Diersen v. GAO https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf  According to them, in that lawsuit, the courts ruled that federal employers can use the following to waste the careers of and to get rid of their Republican employees who are White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, and/or German American: budget cuts, up-or-out, and/or Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. My Democrat superiors crow that they succeeded in destroying a Republican federal employee who had a) three job-related master’s degrees, b) six job-related professional certifications, and c) a job-related professional license.

— Stellantis to Halt Windsor Charger Production for One Week. 3,800 Workers Temporarily Laid Off as Stellantis Reacts to U.S. Tariff Fallout.
https://moparinsiders.com/stellantis-to-halt-windsor-minivan-and-charger-production-for-one-week/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This is the second time in just over a month that production has been halted at the facility, which builds the Chrysler Pacifica, Chrysler Grand Caravan, Chrysler Voyager, and both the gas-powered Dodge Charger and electric Charger Daytona. Stellantis had previously shut the plant down for two weeks in April to evaluate the impact of new 25% U.S. tariffs on imported vehicles. The tariffs, introduced by the Trump administration on April 3, apply to vehicles with a significant amount of non-U.S. content. They’ve already shaken up the North American auto industry, especially for companies like Stellantis that rely on cross-border production. . .But behind the scenes, it’s clear the broader trade environment is weighing heavily. During the company’s Q1 2025 earnings call, Stellantis CFO Doug Ostermann acknowledged that the automaker is actively looking at relocating some production and supply chains to the U.S. to avoid the steep import duties. “It’s something that we’re working very hard on,” said Ostermann. “To think through how quickly can we make those changes to mitigate any tariff impacts?” Meanwhile, workers at the Windsor plant—many of whom were just called back from a two-week layoff in April—are once again facing an uncertain week ahead. With both minivan and Charger output affected, this could be a sign of bigger shifts coming for Stellantis’ North American operations.)

I bought a new 2013 Dodge Charger R/T Max in 2012 and I continue to own it. I recently bought a new 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T Plus EV.
https://www.autoevolution.com/news/96-year-old-kept-1968-dodge-charger-in-storage-for-30-years-his-wife-hated-the-car-250906.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A senior gentleman has been keeping the Dodge Charger in a storage facility for he can’t even remember how long. The car hides under a thick layer of dust that leaves its original color to the imagination. Will it shine and drive again, or should it already be on its way to the scrap yard? The 96-year-old owner of the 57-year-old Dodge Charger is Peter. He has big plans for the car he used to drive and rock the streets with back in the day. He remembers that his wife didn’t like the car. “It was a little louder than necessary,” he recalls. He wants to restore it to its former glory. The time has come for that car to run and drive again. He can’t even remember the last time he drove it, but assumes that it has been in the storage facility for around 30 years. That’s three decades away from the sunlight and off the road. Surprisingly, the tires still hold air and a few more goodies of the era. The Fratzog logo shows up on the dashboard. It is the iconic triangle-like badge that Dodge brought back with the Charger Daytona EV.)

No one calls my tunes because I have enough motivation, time, money, ability, experience, and good health to put together and send out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Everyone in the news media should fully disclose where their money comes from. The money I need to put the newsletter together and to send them out comes from my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension and Social Security (SS). Previously, my money came from what I earned working for GAO (1980-1997), IRS (1971-1980), Firestone Stores (1970-1972), Chrysler (1970), Post Office (1966-1969), John’s Sinclair, Thrall Car, and Flossmoor Country Club (1966), and S.S.

IAFF
— Financial tips to help you plan post-WEP/GPO repeal. Needless-to-say, my critics/opponents will be beyond furious if my application for spousal benefits is approved. Prior to the WEP/GPO repeal, my Social Security (SS) was only $3,000/year. My post-WEP/GPO SS might increase from $6,000/year to $20,000/year. Since 1978, my critics/opponents have been beyond envious of my wife’s salaries. In my defense, I paid into SS 1964-1973 while I washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivered mail, worked on an automotive assembly line, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances, and pumped more gasoline.

FED SMITH
— House Oversight Committee Advances Benefits Cuts Package
https://www.fedsmith.com/2025/04/30/house-oversight-committee-advances-benefits-cuts-package/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Among the cuts in the legislation are raising the FERS contribution rate to 4.4% for all federal employees, eliminating the FERS annuity supplement and switching from a high-3 average salary to high-5. There also is a provision that would give newly hired federal employees the option to elect to serve as at-will employees in exchange for higher take home pay with a lower FERS contribution rate. Accepting the at-will status option would keep the FERS contribution rate at 4.4%, but retaining civil service protections would add 5% to the retirement contribution (9.4% total). Another provision would require federal employees to pay a $350 fee to reduce frivolous employee appeals to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) regarding agency disciplinary adverse actions. The proposed cuts were being considered as the House Oversight Committee looked to slash $50 billion from the overall federal budget as it debated its portion of the larger overall FY 2025 spending bill. In remarks he made at Wednesday’s markup session, Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) said: World-class employment benefits provided to federal employees are well-known, which can include eleven paid holidays; various incentives and awards; health, life, and long-term care insurance; flexible spending accounts; student loan repayment and forgiveness plans; generous leave and workplace flexibilities; and childcare, professional development, and commuter subsidies. The simple truth is that a significant amount of the costs associated with all of these benefits are funded by hardworking taxpayers in the private sector and increasingly now federal government borrowing. The legislation before us today advances important budgetary reforms that will save taxpayers money. Democrats as well as one Republican voted against the legislation in Wednesday’s markup session. Congressman Mike Turner (R-OH) opposed cutting pensions for federal employees as part of the deficit reduction, and he had said prior to the markup session that he would be voting against the bill. He wrote in a statement on X: The goal of reconciliation should be to reduce overall government spending by eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse and reducing needless and unnecessary spending. I oppose any and all efforts to reduce federal spending by taking money from the hard-earned pensions of federal workers. Employee benefits are not a gift. They are earned. I will not support and will not vote for the Oversight Committee’s current budget reconciliation proposal reducing earned pension benefits for current federal employees. In remarks he made at the markup session, Congressman Stephen Lynch (D-MA) said: This partisan bill threatens to further undermine the federal workforce, by reducing the take-home pay, benefits, and workforce protections of 2.4 million federal employees, most of whom are middle-class American workers and a third of whom are military veterans. This is more of the same; an unprecedented assault and political purge of the civil service. The legislative package now advances to the House Budget Committee. Turner also said he thinks that changes are likely to be made to the legislation as it progresses through the legislative process, namely that the cuts to federal employee pensions to which he was opposed would ultimately be eliminated. During Wednesday’s markup session, he reiterated his opposition to the legislation, saying, “I believe that making changes to pension retirement benefits in the middle of someone’s employment is wrong. Changing the rules, especially when someone’s already been vested, is wrong.” He also added, “I have talked to enough people on the House floor that I do think that this [pension cuts] will not be included in the final bill, and that this bill ultimately will have to be changed if it’s going to be included in the ultimate budget reconciliation.” Whether any of these proposed cuts become reality will be determined by what makes it into the final budget legislation if and when it becomes law. As Congressman Turner noted, changes are likely to be made as it goes through the legislative process. FedSmith will continue to provide any updates as they become available.)

— While Durbin runs out his term, others run for his job
https://www.news-gazette.com/opinion/columns/jim-dey-while-durbin-runs-out-his-term-others-run-for-his-job/article_44e7ba73-6841-47f3-a4f5-2398c2ee6b72.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Even a member of the moribund Illinois Republican Party — Peoria U.S. Rep. Darin LaHood — indicated interest. From the outside looking in, a GOP candidate would appear to be the political equivalent of a kamikaze pilot in this reflexively Democratic state. Perhaps that’s why another Republican, former state Rep. Tom Demmer, issued a statement that parodied candidates’ expressions of interest. “Following today’s announcement from Sen. Durbin, I’m preparing to have conversations to consider the potential formation of a tentative exploratory committee to look in to the possibility of floating my candidacy. I hope to have potential decisions narrowed down sometime within the next 12-24 months. Get ready to stay tuned,” Demmer tweeted.)

STARVED ROCK MEDIA
— Pritzker has been contacted by the U.S. Department of Labor to remind him that unemployment benefits are not a handout for those in the country illegally. The letter was sent to all 50 governors in the U.S. Citing the executive order “Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Open Borders,” the letter said it is critical that officials ensure American taxpayer dollars do not go toward encouraging or rewarding illegal immigration to the United States.

— Federal work shaped a Black middle class. Now it’s destabilized by Trump’s job cuts. According to my critics/opponents, a) the Post Office should hired a Black instead of me in 1966, b) IRS should have hired a Black instead of me in 1971 and promoted Blacks instead of me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and c) GAO should have hired a Black instead of me in 1980 and promoted a Black instead of me in 1986. My critics/opponents are overjoyed that my Democrat superiors took so many adverse actions against me and especially my Democrat GAO superiors forcing me to retire in 1997 and giving my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Trump’s mass firing of probationary employees was illegal because it was not performance-based. I should write about how my Democrat superiors in the federal government used the subjectivity in their performance appraisal systems to get rid of me. I would focus on my Democrat GAO superiors. They used that subjectivity a) to force me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980, b) to delay my promotions and to never promote me beyond GS-13, c) to give me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals, d) to always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, and e) to force me to retiree when I was 49 years old in 1997. The following frustrated their painting me as being a poor performer: a) my earning an MBA in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my earning a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, d) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, f) my earning four more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and g) my earning a master’s degree in finance in 1997. – Dave Diersen

— Spectacle of arresting Wisconsin judge is important: A message has to be sent. My Democrat superiors used me to send strong messages. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, and forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors never promoted me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974. My Democrat Firestone Store boss rudely fired me when told him that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How have your critic/opponents used you to send messages? Leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) rudely terminated my membership on the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024. Republican leaders of Wheaton rudely ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. Leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. Republican leaders rudely ended my chairmanship of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois in 2012 and my membership on the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee in 2007. They almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter in 2006. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Have your critics/opponent taken adverse actions against you, and if so, why? My critics/opponents have taken many big adverse actions against me a) because 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 cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money, b) because they are Democrats or RINOs, and/or c) because I have sued them. I should write about my critics/opponents. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopilinois.com
— What have your critics/opponents used against you the most? My critics/opponents have used against me the most a) my fighting Democrat 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, b) my having been a federal employee for almost 30 years and especially my having been an IRS employee for almost 9 years and my having been a federal retiree for almost 28 years, c) my demographics and especially my being a draft avoider, Protestant, and German American, and/or d) my having sued them. But of course, my critics/opponents use pretexts. I should write about my critics/opponents. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What is your position on equal outcome? My critics/opponents promote equal outcome, that is, according to them, no matter what your demographics are, you should be as successful at what you do as those who do not share your demographics, and if you don’t, it is because of discrimination. According to my critics/opponents, if minorities and/or females are less successful doing something than Whites and/or men are, it is because Whites and/or men discriminated against them. I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. Few of those who took those examinations were minorities and/or women. Even fewer passwd the examinations on their first attempt. According to my critics/opponents, I passed the examinations because I benefitted from discrimination against minorities and against women. But in my defense, neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, he never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars and died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What should you tell your children about up-or-out? If your children are White and/or male, you should tell them that Democrats and RINOs will use up-or-out to get rid of them if they are not making at least $100,000 by age 25, $200,000/year by age 30, $300,000 by age 35, $400,000 by age 40, etc.  Because of that, unless your children become Democrats, they should do everything that they can to get good grades, to get the best ACT/SAT score that they can, to get accepted by the best college that they can, and to pick the right major. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors used up-or-out to get rid of me. The Democrats who run the federal government use up-or-out to get rid of their employees who are not Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran and who they do not promote to GS-13 ($117,807) by age 25, GS-14 ($139,211) by age 30, GS-15 ($163,749) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($195,200) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. My Democrat IRS superiors got rid of me because I am not a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran and because I did not make GS-12 ($99,069) until I was 25 and I did not make GS-13 until I was 38. They did that notwithstanding my earning an MBA in business when I was 27, my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, my earning a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA when I was 32, my earning four more job-related professional certifications when I was 41, 45, 47, and 48, and my earning a master’s degree in finance when I was 48. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— According to my critics/opponents, low-level federal jobs should be Black jobs. According to my critics/opponents, a) the Post Office should hired a Black instead of me in 1966 when I was 18, b) IRS should have hired a Black instead of me in 1971 and promoted Blacks instead of me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and c) GAO should have hired a Black instead of me in 1980 and promoted a Black instead of me in 1986. My critics/opponents are overjoyed that my Democrat superiors took so many adverse actions against me and especially that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. – Dave Diersen

WHITE HOUSE
— STRENGTHENING PROBATIONARY PERIODS IN THE FEDERAL SERVICE  I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1980. Because my Democrat GAO superiors soon concluded that I would never become a Democrat, they tried to use probationary procedures to get rid of me. But I had already served my probationary period while I had worked for IRS. They tried to get rid of me because I was a Republican even though I had earned an MBA in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: GAO has documented, however, that agencies have not been using probationary and trial periods as effectively as they could to remove appointees whose continued employment is not in the public interest. As a result of this failure to remove poor performers, agencies have often retained and given tenure to underperforming employees who should have been screened out during their probationary period.)

AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE
— Trump Issues Order Eliminating Use of Disparate-Impact Liability. The order follows a ban on government affirmative action. How have Democrats used disparate-impact against you? According to Democrats, a test is discriminatory if Whites and men do better on it than Blacks, Hispanics, and females do. Because Whites and men do better on the CPA examination than Blacks, Hispanics, and females, my Democrat and GAO superiors used disparate-impact to stop requiring passing the CPA examination to get hired and promoted. That rendered worthless my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30 years old in 1979. To hire and promote Democrats who were Black, Hispanic, and female, they also stopped requiring other qualifications. That rendered worthless my earning an MBA in business when I was 27, my earning a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA when I was 32, my earning four more job-related professional certifications when I was 41, 45, 47, and 48, and my earning a master’s degree in finance when I was 48. I should write about the aforesaid. It is called race and gender based preference giving, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.
