FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-RIGHT SOURCES

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Which offices will be on the November 3, 2026 ballot in your precinct? Do you anticipate/expect helping elect candidates for those offices? What discourages you from doing that? For me, it includes far too many Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their losses and/or near losses. I should write about those candidates and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. Most commonly, they have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I painted them as being more conservative than they wanted to be painted and that caused them to lose. I would focus on the aforesaid candidates who rejected the most planks in the Republican Party platform. I have long since stopped helping elect candidates in nonpartisan elections and Republican primary elections a) because far too many of those candidates who lost those elections and primaries blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their defeats and b) far too many of those candidates who won Republican primaries buy lost general elections blamed their defeats on my support for their opponents in the primaries. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What are the following doing to elect Republicans on November 3, 2026: the leaders of a) the Illinois Republican Party, b) your Republican county party organization, and c) your Republican township party organization? They need to defend and advance the Republican Party platform, that is, they need to defend and advance conservative principles. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do you stress to defend and advance conservative principles? I stress the successes that I have had because I have always followed conservative principles. I earned a bachelor’s degree when I was 21. I earned master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 47. I earned professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48. I earned a professional license when I was 32. I bought new cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 29, etc. I bought real estate when I was 24, 25, 27, 29, 35, etc. I got married when I was 29. I was able to do the aforesaid notwithstanding my parents never having attended college, my father having been only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never having attended high school, and my having to work my way through college. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do you promote that your critics/opponents use against you? My critics/opponents use my promoting the Republican Party platform, that is, my promoting conservative principles. They especially use my promoting the platform’s personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving) planks. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do your critics/opponents do? My critics/opponents 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 wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I should write about my critics/opponents and the many big adverse actions that they have taken against me. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What jobs have you had? According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take and that should have been given to minorities, females, younger people, and veterans. I did yard work 1962-1964, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automotive assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What are your demographics? My critics/opponents look down on, if not despise, if not hate those who share my demographics. I am conservative, Republican, White, male, older (born in 1948), non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. Further, I was a Crete resident 1948-1972 and I have been a Wheaton resident since 1978. Further, I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, including almost 9 years working for IRS, and I have been a federal retiree for almost 28 years. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How envious were your coworkers? My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were full of envy. They always painted themselves as being financially disadvantaged. They decried my earning a bachelor’s degree when I was 21, my earning master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 47, my earning professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, my earning a professional license when I was 32, my buying new cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 29, etc., my buying real estate when I was 24, 25, 27, 29, 35, etc., my getting married when I was 29, etc. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I would never have been able to do the aforesaid a) if I had not avoided the draft and b) if my wife and I had children. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What Caste were you born into? My critics/opponents stress a) that my parents were Protestant and German American, b) that neither of my parents attended college, c) that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, d) that he never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, e) that my mother never attended high school, f) that I had to work my way through college, g) that none of my degrees are from Ivy League universities, h) that I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, i) that I have been a federal retiree for almost 28 years, and j) that I never earned more than $153,151/year in today’s dollars. – Dave Diersen

https://legalinsurrection.com/2025/04/trump-admin-should-unleash-the-false-claims-act-to-end-discrimination-in-higher-education/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many schools (including almost all “elite” universities) view their maintenance of Kendian “discrimination for the right reasons” programs in admissions, hiring, promotions, tenure, and funding to be moral imperatives, and thus either are flatly refusing to abide by the Trump administration’s demands, and/or are continuing their discriminatory programs sub rosa.)

— Judge orders Trump administration to tell fired workers they were not let go for poor performance. In Diersen v. GAO ( https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf ), the Democrats who ran GAO hinted/implied//argued/shouted that they forced me to retire because I was a poor performer and because of Gingrich budget cuts and not because I had become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. They ignored/dismissed/belittled/badmouthed that I had earned a) three job-related master’s degrees (business, accounting, and finance), b) six job-related professional certifications (accounting, internal auditing, fraud examination, government financial management, financial services auditing, and forensic accounting) and c) a job-related professional license (CPA).

NPR ILLINOIS & NORTHERN PUBLIC RADIO
— The Trump administration announced it is moving forward with a new rule to reclassify some career civil servants as “at will” federal employees, a plan it says will make it easier to fire underperforming employees. My Democrat superiors in the federal government hinted/implied/argued/shouted that they took adverse actions against me because I was an underperformer. That was a pretext. In my defense, I stress that a) I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, b) I earned three job-related master’s degrees, c) I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, d) I became a licensed CPA, and e) I earned four more job-related professional certifications. None of my coworkers who they promoted over me had done anything close to that. They all were Democrats who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had. They all were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

Ever since my parents sent me to kindergarten at Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete in 1953, my critics/opponents have falsely and maliciously hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my parents were filthy rich. But 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 he died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school.

— I have fought age discrimination since I was 25 years old in 1973. That was when my Democrat IRS superiors used up-or-out to deem me to be too old to ever be promoted to GS-13. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 years old in 1986. By then, I had a) earned an MBA in 1976, b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) transferred to GAO and earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, and d) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. My Democrat GAO superiors never promoted me to GS-14 even though a) I earned four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and b) earned a master’s degree in finance in 1997.

— What harmed your career the most? For me, first, it was my Firestone Store manager’s disapproval of my demographics. Firestone Store’s District Office hired me and assigned me to his store in 1970. He never would have hired me. He vehemently disapproved of my avoiding the Vietnam War draft. Then it was Oldsmobile’s withdrawing its job offer because it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint in 1971. That ended my career in automotive industry. My Firestone Store manager rudely fired me because I accepted that offer. I accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 because I had to have a job. Then it was my Democrat IRS superiors’ success in getting rid of the manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. Then it was my Democrat GAO superiors’ success in getting rid of the manager who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors got rid of the aforesaid managers because they had advanced me instead of advancing my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. But then, more significantly, it was my opposing my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors’ race and gender based preference giving, their political affiliation discrimination, their reverse discrimination, their age discrimination, their religious discrimination, and their national origin discrimination. But then, even more significantly, it was my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in 1988. – Dave Diersen

— What helped your career the most? For me, it was my a) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul 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 more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and g) my earning a master’s degree in finance in 1997. If I had not done the aforesaid, a) IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and b) GAO would not have hired me in 1980, promoted me in 1986, or let me work as long as it did. – Dave Diersen

— Democrats invaded, infested, and conquered DuPage County to take advantage of the prosperity and safety that Republicans created there. Now they want to obliterate the county’s history. Under the Democrats, poverty and crime will ever-increasingly increase in DuPage County. Under the Democrats, there will be more and more a) welfare, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, prostitution, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and g) 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. DuPage County residents will have to spend more and more and more money on protecting their personal safety. They will have to avoid leaving their residences at night. They will need to know where the “no go” zones are and to avoid them. More and more and more employers will not hire Republicans and they will get rid of their Republican employees. More and more and more organizations will not admit Republican members and they will get rid of their Republican members. And even worse things. How many voted for Harris in your precinct? 478 did in my precinct.

JOURNAL COURIER
— Getting the IRS on the phone is more difficult this tax filing season. Have you ever phoned IRS with a tax question? If you did during the 1974 filing season, the IRS employee who answered your call was one of my subordinates. Back then, as a 25-year-old GS-11 (currently $82,655/year) IRS Revenue Officer, I supervised all of the IRS employees, which included a rotating staff of about 90 IRS Revenue Agent trainees, in IRS’s new downtown Chicago office who answered taxpayer questions using IRS’s new tollfree CentiPhone system. Because of my job performance, the IRS manager who had given me that developmental opportunity and who had promoted me in 1972 and 1973 promoted me to GS-12 (currently $99,069/year) in 1974.)

— Compared to your peers, how much money are you saving/did you save for your retirement? Ever since my wife and I got married in 1978, we always saved as much as we could for our retirement. My critics/opponents are ever-increasingly furious about that. We were able to save more for our retirement because we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. According to my critics/opponents, if we had children, a) I would not have been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, or become a licensed CPA in 1981 and b) my wife would not have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986.

— The Trump administration has paused Green Card processing for certain immigrants, including approved refugees. With Indian asylum seekers in the U.S. rising from 9,000 in 2018 to 51,000 in 2023—a 466% increase—this move could leave many in limbo. How will it impact Indians?

DAILY HERALD
— Internal White House document details layoff plans across U.S. agencies. While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, the agency was almost always under hiring freezes and/or promotion freezes because of Gingrich budget cuts. Of course, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious about that. To punish Gingrich, my Democrat GAO superiors and supervisors took many big adverse actions against me.

They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. They especially targeted me because I complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination (up-or-out), religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. They even more especially targeted me after 1988 when I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

THE HILL
— Musk tries to rehab DOGE after backlash, mistakes. If Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it in the 1980s and 1990s, DOGE would not be needed today and I might still be a GAO employee. If Gingrich had formed a team to reform GAO, I would have volunteered to be a member of that team. I would have stressed a) that I had worked for GAO since 1980 and the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $117,807-$153,151/year, b) that I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in1981, d) that I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and e) that I earned an MBA in 1976, a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, and a master’s degree in finance in 1997.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
— IRS Criminal Investigation Division (CID) announces modernization program as financial crimes use more tech. GAO audits IRS. I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO on audits of IRS’s CID 1986-1988 at the GS-13 Step 1-3 Levels, currently $117,807-$125,661/year. My Democrat GAO superiors wasted what I had learned about CID doing that. They also wasted what I had learned about IRS’s Collection Division. I worked for that Division 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year.

— Black Americans describe how being a federal worker was their path to the middle class — and the heartbreak of losing it. According to my critics/opponents, the jobs that I got in 1964 (washing dishes), 1966 (cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline), 1970 (working on an automobile assembly line and selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances), 1971 (pumping gasoline and collecting delinquent taxes), and 1980 (auditing federal agencies) and the promotions that I got in 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1986 should have been given to Blacks. They were overjoyed when my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire when I was 49 years in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. He had less work experience than I had. He had less education than I had. He had one professional certification while I had six. He had no professional license like the one I had.
