IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.

— Why affirmative action could prevent lost talent in economics – HAL WEITZMAN
(DIERSEN: Because federal employees and federal retirees are viciously demonized, viciously denigrated, and viciously condemned, it was extremely difficult for my Post Office, IRS, and GAO superiors to hire and retain qualified minorities, qualified females, qualified younger people, and qualified veterans. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.

(DIERSEN: What about bad jobs? According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard 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.)

— Supreme Court issues stinging defeat to unions – CARLOS GARCIA
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have demonstrated their hatred of unions, of former union members, of current union members, and of future union members the most. I would focus on those who stress that I was a union member for almost 12 years of the almost 30 years that I worked for the federal government. My Democrat superiors took many adverse actions against me. GAO did not unionize until 2007. I worked for GAO 1980-1997. Had GAO had been unionized, my Democrat GAO superiors might very well have not been able to a) force me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) give me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, c) always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, d) not promote me beyond GS-13, e) get rid of my mentor in 1987, f) keep me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and g) force me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

— AARP Applauds U.S. House Vote on Bipartisan Bill to Combat Age Bias. Legislation Restores Longstanding Legal Protections for Older Workers.
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who promote age discrimination the strongest. They stress that my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors did not promote me to GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, or Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40. They ignore/belittle the fact that extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. They stress that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. They hint/imply/argue/shout that the aforesaid was not because of political affiliation, reverse discrimination, or age discrimination, but because I am an extremely bad person. They ignore/belittle the fact that I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. They hint/imply/argue/shout that because I had the aforesaid degrees, professional certifications, and professional license and IRS and GAO still got rid of me proves that I have always been an extremely bad person. They stress that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran and that I am 100% German American. In my defense, I have been married since 1978 and I served on the Executive Committee of the Association of Government Accountants 1983-1996.)

The tests that I have passed include a) the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 when I was 30 years old, b) the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, c) all the tests necessary to earn a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, d) all the tests necessary to earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) all the tests necessary to earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976, f) all the tests necessary to earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, g) the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, and h) the Post Office employment examination in 1966.)

COLLEGE FIX
— ‘1619 creator’ refuses to start her job at UNC unless she’s immediately granted tenure – MATT LAMB
(DIERSEN: GAO audits IRS. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO, that is, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10. For the rest of my GAO career, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates viciously used that against me big time. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the pay cut and downgrade showed that GAO considered the following to be worthless a) my having worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels (currently $85,935-$97,395/year, b) my having passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my having earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and d) my almost having completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul.)

(DIERSEN: Have you been “offered” a buyout? In 1993, when I was a 45 year old GS-13 GAO employee who had 25 years of federal service, the Democrats who ran GAO “offered” a $25,000 buyout to all their employees, including me, who had 25 or more years of federal service. They made it very clear that they wanted all eligible GAO employees to take their “offer” who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $101,176) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $119,559) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $140,634) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $170,800) by age 40. Extremely few GAO employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. The $25,000 buyout expired in 1994, but in 1997, they succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer.”)

(DIERSEN: Were you viewed as being “college material?” I was not. Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. During my junior and senior years in high school and the summer in between 1964-1966, I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights. But nevertheless, I a) took college-preparatory courses, b) got into the upper 20% of my class, c) got a 24 on the ACT, d) got accepted by UIC in 1966, e) got accepted by NIU in 1969 and graduated with a bachelor of science degree in management in 1970, f) got accepted by Loyola in 1972 and graduated with an MBA in 1976, g) got accepted by DePaul in 1976 and graduated with a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, h) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, i) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and j) got accepted by IIT in 1992 and graduated with a master’s degree in finance in 1997.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— MAGA disciple Marjorie Taylor Greene is headlining a fundraiser for fellow freshman Rep. Mary Miller in a move some Republicans see as harmful to the party’s statewide efforts to gain traction in Democratic-run Illinois. – SHIA KAPOS
(DIERSEN: Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters want the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) a) to dump voters who are pro-law enforcement, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time and b) to dump the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and the rest of the planks in the Republican Party platform. I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters who lead Republican organizations in Illinois.)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/06/23/feds-aim-at-gun-problem-new-road-leads-to-obama-mary-miller-makes-a-maga-move-493342
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “To embrace [Greene] and to bring her as a representative of the Republican Party is damaging to the brand of the party,” former Illinois GOP Chair Pat Brady told Playbook. “An overwhelming majority of Republicans do not agree with her worldview at all and that includes many of our friends in Congress.” The Illinois Republican Party did not return a request for comment about Greene headlining Miller’s fundraiser. And Republican operatives declined to talk, acknowledging they want to avoid the far-right conservative backlash and bashing that comes when they speak out against Donald Trump’s base. Miller’s political team would not comment on why she decided to bring Greene to Illinois. It’s known, though, that the two freshman Republicans have become friends. Along with their support of Trump, they vote similarly, have signed on to bills and letters together, and are aligned with the Freedom Caucus and America First platform. Greene recently drew criticism for equating mask-wearing rules at the Capitol to Jews living in Nazi Germany during the Holocaust, putting her in a situation similar to Miller, who drew scorn in January for drawing parallels between Hitler and Democrats. From a political perspective, Miller doesn’t even need to bring Greene to Illinois to fundraise. She, like her husband, state Rep. Chris Miller, represents a conservative district that’s mostly isolated from the rest of Illinois’ more centrist Republican Party. “She’s not going to lose, so bringing Greene only damages the party” in a year when Republicans may have a shot to make inroads in races statewide, said Brady. The congressional remap later in the year will determine whether the district continues to lean far to the right. Like Republicans across the country, the Illinois GOP is banking on success in 2022 because the midterms generally favor the party that’s not in the White House. The fundraiser will be held July 8 in the Effingham Performing Arts Center. Tickets range from $75 to $5,800.)

Also spotted: Republican gubernatorial candidate Gary Rabine, Senate Minority Leader Dan McConchie, and state Reps. Mike Murphy and Dan Caulkins. . .Republican Rep. Deanne Mazzochi (47th) has donated $150,000 to her campaign fund, according to the State Board of Elections. That doesn’t exceed the contribution caps since those limits don’t start until 12 months before an election. And since the 2022 primary is June 28, she’s all clear with the big gift. – SHIA KAPOS

— Juneteenth, Gay Pride Celebrations Allowed In City That Canceled Independence Day Parade – Joseph Curl
(DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, months ago, Wheaton should contracted with the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums, Wheaton North High School Band, and Wheaton Warrenville South High School Band to march in Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade subject to Pritzker allowing the parade to go forward.)
https://www.dailywire.com/news/juneteenth-gay-pride-celebrations-allowed-in-city-that-canceled-independence-day-parade
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In an interview on Fox News, organizer Jamie Black said the city’s Fourth of July Association “made the decision in March based on the information that we had at that time.” “There are deadlines for permits and to secure the fireworks, as well as taking applications for the parade that happen early in the year,” Black said. “We erred on the side of caution. If things weren’t better, we would have been criticized for being a super spreader event.”)

(DIERSEN: Who are your peers? My peers are those who share my demographics (White, male, Missouri Synod Lutheran, and German American), who took college preparatory classes at Crete-Monee High School, and who graduated with me in the top 20% our class in 1966. If you have more money than your peers, what do your critics/opponents attribute that to? According to my critics/opponents, I have more money than my peers a) because I have had better health than my peers, b) because I avoided the draft, c) because the federal government grossly overpaid me, d) because of my wife’s income, e) because we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, f) because my federal retirement benefits are too generous, g) because I do not give money to a church, h) etc. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.

http://www.gopillinois.com
(MY LETTER TO SUBURBAN LIFE EDITOR: One of the reasons why parents bring their children to parades is to see marching bands and animals. This year, for Wheaton’s Independence Day parade, in my roles as the www.GOPUSA.com Illinois editor, as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman and as a Milton Township Republican precinct committeeman, I had the honor of recruiting Republicans and Republican organizations to sponsor two outstanding parade entries: The Chicago Highlanders Pipes and Drums band and Big Queenie, a 38-year-old, 10,000 pound Asian female elephant. With the elephant being the proud symbol of the Republican Party, I am very happy to report that Big Queenie won the parade’s Best Political Entry award. Outstanding Republican parade entries included Joe Birkett, DuPage County District 4 (Grant Eckhoff, Mike Formento, J.R. McBride and Debra Olson), Mike Fortner, Gwen Henry, Randy Hultgren, Chris Kachiroubas, Milton Township Republican Central Committee, Ron Paul supporters, Peter Roskam, Steve Sauerberg and Bob Schillerstrom. Big Queenie, who recently visited Wheaton with the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus at the DuPage County fairgrounds, walked the parade route behind Congressman Peter Roskam’s float. Many who stopped by the staging area before the parade kicked off took advantage of the opportunity to see the beautiful and very gentle elephant up close and take pictures of her. I hope that Republican sponsorship of Big Queenie and the outstanding Chicago Highlanders Pipe and Drums in the parade will become a tradition. Many thanks again to the following outstanding 30 Republicans and one Republican political organization who contributed from $50 to $250 each for a total of $3,300 to sponsor the Chicago Highlanders and/or Big Queenie: Mary Jo Arndt, Alan Bolds, Fred Bucholz, David Carlin, Roger Claar, Franco Coladipietro, Mike Connelly, Paul Daniels, Kirk Dillard, DuPage County Young Republicans, Bob Earl, Jim Flickinger, Mike Formento, Mike Fortner, Mike Gresk, Gwen Henry, Randy Hultgren, Bob Jacobsen, Chris Kachiroubas, Gary King, Mark Kmiecik, Bob Larsen, J.R. McBride, Debra Olson, Mike Prueter, Peter Roskam, Darlene Ruscitti, Leonard Sanchez, Ron Smith, Phil Suess and Tim Whelan. Also, many thanks again to All Star Printing for printing the many parade fliers that I hand-delivered to every home and business on the parade route.)

(DIERSEN: From what I see, ever-increasingly, Democrats will promote Juneteenth and cancel Independence Day.)
https://www.bnd.com/news/local/article252227738.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Equity was a theme of Saturday’s Juneteenth Metro-East “Freedom in Equity” Festival, which was organized by the Taylors. . .“Reparations now,” Terrance said about what he wants to see happen next now that Juneteenth is officially a national holiday. “Reparations now. We got Juneteenth, and now that’s the strategy. “ . . . “It means next steps,” Stephanie said. “It means time to move even further. This was just one step. This was about acknowledging history, and now it is time to make sure equity is realized … that looks like reparations. That looks like the Crown Act. That looks like really experiencing equity.” . . . “I’m going to be honest, I don’t even celebrate the Fourth of July anymore,” Thomas, 38, said. I haven’t celebrated it in the past few years, so I don’t intend on celebrating it anymore. It’s not trying to be one kind of way, it’s just that I’m excited about my heritage and my people, and at any given moment, I want to celebrate it if not every day.” . . . “While the end of slavery is an important milestone in our crucial history, we know it has been followed by over 150 years of continued oppression and inequity,” Greenwood said.)

He also asserted that “Christians must stand up and fight against evil” and questioned, “What’s happy about being perverted?”)

— OUTRAGEOUS: The Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums will not march in Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade and it is still unclear if Wheaton’s high school bands will march in the parade. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
(THE ARTICLE: Since 2005, DuPage Republicans have donated $2,500/year to help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. But this year, outrageously, Wheaton stopped accepting sponsorships. For many years, $1,000 of the $2,500 DuPage Republican sponsorships was earmarked for the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums. But today, the band advised me that it would not be marching in the parade this year because Wheaton had not invited the band to march, and therefore, it accepted an invitation from Glen Ellyn to march in its parade. The band cannot march in both parades this year because not all of the band’s members are available to march in two parades back to back, and this year, Glen Ellyn’s parade starts at noon, only 1 hour after Wheaton’s parade starts. Wheaton should have contracted with the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums and the high school bands to march in Wheaton’s parade months ago with an escape clause if Pritzker banned the parade. Needless-to-say, anyone who tries to blame me for the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums not marching in Wheaton’s Independence Day Parade is wrong. Further, anyone who tries to blame me if the Wheaton North and/or Wheaton Warrenville South bands do not march in Wheaton’s Independence Day Parade is wrong.)
