My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974.

In 1997, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take their early retirement “offer” so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black Democrat subordinate, which they did. Previously, to give preference to my Democrat coworkers and subordinates who minority, female, and or younger, they gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

NATIONAL LAW REVIEW
— Combating Whistleblower Retaliation: How to Maximize Your Recovery
(COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969, I blew the whistle on political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, religious discrimination, nation origin discrimination, and age discrimination. I should write a book about that.)
https://www.natlawreview.com/article/combating-whistleblower-retaliation-how-to-maximize-your-recovery
(FROM THE ARTICLE: All too often, whistleblowers who disclose fraud to their employers, law enforcement, or government agencies suffer retaliation by their employers. Whistleblower retaliation takes a serious toll on whistleblowers both financially and emotionally, including an inability to pay living expenses, reputational harm, alienation, blacklisting, and emotional distress. Whistleblower protection laws can provide a potent remedy, but before bringing a retaliation claim, it is crucial to assess the options under federal and state law and develop a strategy to achieve the optimal recovery. Key issues to consider include the scope of protected whistleblowing, the burden of proof, the damages that a prevailing whistleblower can recover, the forum where the claim would be litigated, and the impact of the retaliation claim on a whistleblower rewards claim.)

https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/569882-the-political-tides-are-turning-against-the-biden-presidency
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The recent decline in support for President Biden and his administration likely means that the Democratic Party will lose control of the House and potentially the Senate in 2022 — and makes it increasingly likely that Biden will be a one-term president. Just 41 percent of registered voters now approve of Biden, while 55 percent disapprove, according to a USA Today-Suffolk University survey released last week. President Biden’s approval rating has markedly deteriorated, having dropped 16 points since this spring.)

(COMMENT: According to Democrats, Republicans have too much money and government should take money away from Republicans and give it to Democrats.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chinese President Xi Jinping’s newfound emphasis on promoting “common prosperity” to deal with the large wealth gap in the ostensibly communist nation has led to tough times for some of China’s billionaires. Jack Ma, formerly the richest person in the country, is among those whose net worth has fallen as a wave of new state controls and regulations drove down share prices for some of China’s hottest companies. The government’s campaign is about more than reducing inequality, however. There’s also increasing concern in Beijing about great wealth translating into political power separate from the Communist Party.)

— Biden: ‘They gave me a list here, the first person I was instructed to call on’ was NBC reporter – Victor Morton
(COMMENT: I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I should write a book about how the following have treated me: a) the leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) the leaders of the Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, their major donors, their fundraisers, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers, and d) the leaders of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/aug/26/joe-biden-first-person-i-was-instructed-call-was-k/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Biden said at Thursday’s press conference on the fatal day in Afghanistan that he had been told by others what reporters to let question him. “They gave me a list here, the first person I was instructed to call on was Kelly O’Donnell, NBC,” he said. Conservative commentators quickly took the words and the president’s halting diction as confirmation of their longstanding belief that Mr. Biden is a puppet and not really in charge at the White House. “Who instructed him? Was that also the Taliban,” asked Greg Gutfeld on Fox News Channel immediately after.)

They succeeded in forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Previously, they gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)
