— Illinois farmers ease critical labor shortages through this agricultural visa program. The H-2A visa has become a lifeline for farmers who can’t find enough domestic workers. DD: All my employers would have hired non-citizens instead of me if they could have. I never worked on a farm. But I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automotive assemble line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, and pumped more gasoline 1971-1972. My critics/opponents never had to take such bad jobs and they would never have stooped to take such bad jobs.

CHALKBEAT CHICAGO

DD: My parents sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod. My critic/opponents have always outrageously/disgustingly/falsely/unethically used that to demonize, denigrate, and condemn my parents, and therefore me, as being filthy rich. But they have always known full-well that my father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, that he almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, that he died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21 in 1969, and that I had to work my way through college. But they have always known full-well that I did yard work 1962-1964, that I delivered newspapers 1962-1966, that I washed dishes 1964-1966, that I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, that I delivered mail 1966-1969, that I worked on an automotive assemble line in 1970, that I sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, and that I pumped more gasoline 1971-1972.

— What do you do, who discourages you from doing it, and why? To discourage/stop me from putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out, my critics/opponents ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that my promoting conservative principles and the Republican Party platform is hopeless, and that therefore, it is a waste of my time, a waste of my effort, and a waste of my money. They stress the adverse actions that they have had their operatives and their dupes take against me including a) throwing me off the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024, b) ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, c) gerrymandering my precinct in 2015, d) ending my service as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2012, e) ending my service as the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster in 2010 and 2004, f) ending my service as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member in 2007, g) almost getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, h) defeating my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004, and i) getting a registered Republican voter in my precinct to run against me for Republican Precinct Committeeman in 2000. – Dave Diersen

— Why have adverse actions been taken against you? Many big adverse actions have been taken against me a) because I fight against race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, b) because I fight against the promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, vice, and diminishment of Second Amendment rights, c) because I have filed complaints, grievances, arbitration demands, and lawsuits, and d) because I refuse to be manipulated/dominated by my critics/opponents, I refuse to glorify and praise them, I refuse to pander to them, I refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, I refused to cover up their wrong doing, and I refuse to give them money. – Dave Diersen

PJ MEDIA
— Chelsea Handler Attacks Traditional Marriage, Claims It Turns Women Into ‘Property’
https://pjmedia.com/michaelcantrell/2026/04/07/chelsea-handler-attacks-traditional-marriage-claims-it-turns-women-into-property-n4951555
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Comedian — a term I use loosely in this instance — and far-left activist Chelsea Handler took the opportunity to share her thoughts about marriage, which, by the way, nobody really wanted to know. She called it “outdated” and a “really silly idea,” adding that she puts “freedom” above all else. The 51-year-old then slammed the institution, saying, “You’re kind of, like, property a little bit.” Never mind that God created marriage as a sacramental representation of His relationship to His Church and established it as the bedrock of every civilized society since mankind began. No, Handler finds it too limiting on freedom, which really translates to not allowing her to drop her panties for anyone, anytime. She has built something of a reputation for being, shall we say, “loose” with her sexuality.)

WHITE HOUSE
— Trump Administration Celebrates Successes for America’s Workers. DD: All my employers would have hired those who were the following instead of me if they could have: Democrat, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time, and/or were noncitizens. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors would have promoted those who were the aforesaid instead of me if they could have. My taking graduate evening business courses helped me get promoted by IRS in 1972, 1973, and 1974. My earning an MBA, my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt, my earning a master’s degree in accounting, my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt, and my becoming a licensed CPA helped me get promoted by GAO in 1986.

https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/india/american-dream-over-what-may-happen-to-indians-on-h-1b-visas-if-us-birthright-citizenship-ends/ar-AA201aUb
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The historic oral arguments in the case of Trump vs Barbara have sent a wave of anxiety through the international community, particularly among the hundreds of thousands of Indian professionals currently residing in the United States on H-1B visas. For decades, the “American Dream” for Indian tech workers has included a silent guarantee: even if their own path to a Green Card takes twenty years, any child born on US soil would be an American citizen from day one. However, with President Donald Trump personally overseeing the legal challenge to the 14th Amendment’s Citizenship Clause in April 2026, that guarantee is now under direct threat. If birthright citizenship ends, the legal and personal landscape for H-1B families will undergo a seismic shift, transforming “anchor babies” into a generation of “stateless” or “foreign” dependents.)
— If a man has these 6 habits, he’s likely a low-value partner. DD: Democrat leaders ever-increasingly destroy traditional marriage. What helped you become marriage material? By the time I got married when I was 29 in 1978, I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years and my salary was $110,066/year in today’s dollars. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I was taking graduate evening accounting courses at DePaul. I lived in a one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building that I had bought in 1976. I was renting out a town home in University Park that I had bought new in 1972. I owned a 1972 Corvette that I had bought new in 1971. Things that impressed me about my outstanding wife included that her first job after high school was working for the FBI. She soon became the Corporate Secretary for the U.S. League of Savings Institutions. She did much to help elect Big Jim Thompson governor in 1976. She earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986.

— Illinois House speaker’s son to attend private school. DD: My parents sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod. My critic/opponents have always outrageously/disgustingly/falsely/unethically used that to demonize, denigrate, and condemn my parents, and therefore me, as being filthy rich. They have always known full-well that my father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, that he almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, that he died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21 in 1969, and that I had to work my way through college. They have always known full-well that I did yard work 1962-1964, that I delivered newspapers 1962-1966, that I washed dishes 1964-1966, that I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, that I delivered mail 1966-1969, that I worked on an automotive assemble line in 1970, that I sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, and that I pumped more gasoline 1971-1972.

MOVIE GUIDE
— High dating standards. DD: Democrat leaders ever-increasingly destroy traditional marriage. What helped you become marriage material? By the time I got married when I was 29 in 1978, I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years and my salary was $110,066/year in today’s dollars. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I was taking graduate evening accounting courses at DePaul. I lived in a one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building that I had bought in 1976. I was renting out a town home in University Park that I had bought new in 1972. I owned a 1972 Corvette that I had bought new in 1971. Things that impressed me about my outstanding wife included that her first job after high school was working for the FBI. She soon became the Corporate Secretary for the U.S. League of Savings Institutions. She did much to help elect Big Jim Thompson governor in 1976. She earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986.

POLITICO
— IRS staffing shortage collides with GOP’s tax cut campaign pitch. DD: In 1974, when I was a newly promoted 25-year-old GS-11 (currently $83,482/year) IRS Revenue Officer, I was responsible for IRS answering all the calls that came into IRS’s new Centiphone automated answering system in downtown Chicago. I supervised the operation’s entire staff which included 90 IRS Revenue Agent trainees. Because of my job performance, the IRS manager who had given me that developmental assignment and who had promoted me in 1972 and 1973, promoted me to GS-12 (currently $100,059/year) in 1974. That made my Democrat IRS superiors furious. According to them, that Centiphone assignment should have been given to a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. They soon got rid of the IRS manager that promoted me. They disallowed my travel vouchers. They disallowed my education deductions. They ignored/dismissed/belittled my earning an MBA and passing the CPA examination on my first attempt. They made it clear that they would never promote me to GS-13. That directly resulted in my transferring to GAO.

— DD: According to Democrat leaders, Hegseth has delayed and blocked military promotions for bad reasons. My critics/opponents applaud the reasons why my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors delayed and blocked my promotions. They delayed and blocked my promotions because I was not a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran. They delayed and blocked my promotions a) because I complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination and b) because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with the aforesaid when I was 40 in 1988.

— Pam Bondi Wanted a Graceful Exit. But Trump Wanted Her Gone. DD: When I was 49 in 1997, I wanted to work at least until I was eligible for regular retirement when I would be 55 in 2003. But my Democrat GAO superiors wanted me to take their early retirement “offer” which expired on September 30, 1997. They wanted to get rid of their employees like me who were conservative, Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and who they had not promoted to Senior Executive Service, currently $197,200/year. All my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government who my Democrat GAO superiors got rid of shared most if not virtually all of my demographics.

DD: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, they gave their Chicago field office managers lists of employees to get rid of who were conservative, Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. I was always at the top of those lists. The less success that managers had ousting those employees, the sooner that they were ousted. I would not have survived for almost 18 years or have gotten promoted in 1986 if I had not a) earned master’s degrees in business in 1976, accounting in 1980, and finance in 1997, b) earned professional certifications in accounting in 1979, internal auditing in 1981, fraud examination in 1990, government financial management in 1994, financial services auditing in 1996, and forensic accounting in 1997, and c) become a licensed CPA in 1981.

Since the 1960s, Democrat and RINO leaders have ever-increasingly advanced people because they were Democrat, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless my job-related 1970 bachelor’s degree, my 1976, 1980, and 1997 job-related master’s degrees, my job-related 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 professional certifications, and my 1981 job-related professional license.

I have been a federal retiree for almost 29 years. In my defense, I would not have become postal employee when I was 18 in 1966 if my high school friend had not asked me to take the postal employment test with him. I would not have become an IRS employee when I was 22 in 1971 if Oldsmobile had not agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Because of that agreement, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted. Because I had accepted that offer, my Firestone Store boss rudely fired me.

They ignored/dismissed/belittled/badmouthed that I had a) worked full-time for Firestone Stores 1970-1971 and part-time 1971-1972.

I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer saying it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. My Firestone Store boss fired me because I had accepted that job offer. Because I had to have a job, I accepted a job offer from IRS.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a significant development reflecting heightened federal scrutiny of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) recently announced a $500,000 settlement with Planned Parenthood of Illinois. This resolution stems from an EEOC investigation into allegations of race-based discrimination and harassment tied to the organization’s DEI programming. The settlement serves as an important reminder that DEI initiatives, while often well-intentioned, remain subject to the same statutory requirements as all other workplace practices under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. EEOC allegations and findings. The EEOC initiated a class investigation following multiple employee charges alleging that Planned Parenthood’s DEI initiatives resulted in disparate treatment and a hostile work environment. According to the EEOC, the organization’s programs impermissibly classified employees based on race and created unequal working conditions. Specifically, the EEOC alleged that Planned Parenthood: Required employees to participate in mandatory affinity groups segregated by race; Conducted DEI trainings that included statements perceived as derogatory toward white employees; Administered workplace benefits, including time-off opportunities, in a manner that differed based on race; and Failed to adequately address or remediate alleged discriminatory conduct until after internal escalation. The EEOC emphasized that Title VII contains no exception for DEI-related initiatives and reiterated that its protections apply equally to all employees, regardless of race or other protected characteristics.)

Of course, I disclosed that all my ancestors immigrated from what is now Germany during the 1840s and 1850s and that they and I have always been Missouri Synod Lutheran. Very few in the office had ancestors who had immigrated from what is now Germany. Most had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. Virtually none were Protestant. Because of Affirmative Action and other reporting requirements, we all already knew each others’ political affiliation, race, gender, age, veteran status, salary and bonuses, marital status, children, federal seniority, etc. We all knew that our GAO superiors’ top priorities were a) retaining and promoting their employees who were Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran and b) getting rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. They all knew about, if not applauded, the many big adverse actions that my Democrat GAO superiors had taken against me.

All of them had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had fewer professional certifications than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had. During the last 8 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO, all my Chicago office superiors and supervisors were women who were younger than me and did not share my conservativism, my Republicanism, my religion (Protestant), or my national origin (German). All of their parents were immigrants while my ancestors have been in America since 1844. When I was 49 in 1997, they took the lead in forcing me to retire. I should write about that.

— Spring Break. DD: When you were in college, did you take spring breaks? My Democrat Park Forest Post Office superiors were veterans and they were furious when I took vacation days for a spring break in 1969 and drove to Daytona Beach with three of my female NIU classmates in my 1969 Dodge Charger SE. In 1970, I repeated the aforesaid. My Democrat Firestone Store boss who was a veteran was furious that I went on a student package trip to the Bahamas while I was taking a graduate evening business course at UIC in the spring of 1971. My aforesaid superiors and boss were furious that I took the aforesaid vacations because I had avoided the Vietnam War draft with student deferments and a financial hardship deferment at a time when my peers were dying in Vietnam. They blamed Republicans like me for America losing the Vietnam War. Further, while I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for GAO 1980-1997, many, most, and at times virtually all my of superiors and supervisors were Democrat veterans who also blamed Republicans for America losing the Vietnam War. They were also furious when took vacations every year starting in 1973. For them, the federal government existed to hire, to retain, and to promote Democrat veterans. In my defense, the four vacations to the Bahamas, Hawaii, Mexico, and Jamacia 1973-1976 were budget packages offered by the National Treasury Employees Union.

NDTV PROFIT
— What Makes A Professional Valuable? DD: What made you valuable? For me, it included my knowledge of IRS because GAO audits IRS. When I was 31 in 1980 and transferred from IRS to GAO, I had gained a strong knowledge of IRS by working for it almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $100,059-$113,402/year. But because I was not a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or a veteran. But because I had complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. And because Democrats do not want Republicans to audit Democrats, my Democrat GAO superiors viciously discredited and wasted my knowledge of IRS. They did that a) by forcing me to take a $23,699/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10, b) by delaying my promotions back to GS-12, c) by keeping me off audits of IRS until I was 37, and d) by not promoting me to GS-13 until I was 38. Further, while they let me work on audits of IRS for 3 years, none of those audits were of IRS’s Collection Division, the division that I knew most about. Further, to discredit me, they ignored, dismissed, and belittled what I learned earning an MBA when I was 27, passing the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, earning a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, and passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA when I was 32. Further, I never would have gotten assigned to audits of IRS or promoted to GS-13 if the GAO manager who had arranged my transfer had not briefly gotten back into power. They forced him to retire when I was 39.

CPA JOURNAL
— Reconciling Ambition with Reality. Addressing the Profession’s Diversity and Talent Pipeline Crisis. DD: The accounting profession wrote me off as being “TOO OLD” a) because I did not start taking graduate accounting courses until I was 27, b) because I did not take the CPA examination and pass it on my first attempt until I was 30, c) because I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31, d) because I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and pass it on my first attempt and become a licensed CPA until I was 32, and e) more significantly, because I was not a minority or a female.
https://www.cpajournal.com/2026/03/30/reconciling-ambition-with-reality-2/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For several years now, declining enrollments in universities and high turnover at firms have posed a serious threat to the accounting profession’s viability. The solution is not merely a numbers game, it requires a multifaceted approach to updating pedagogy, refreshing the profession’s image, and clearing firm-level cultural barriers. The leaky pipeline is not primarily due to a shallow pool of academic candidates, but rather to barriers that impede their successful entry, retention, and advancement within firms. The historical underrepresentation of minorities in the profession should be understood as intertwined with the pipeline problem, and solving the latter requires addressing the former. . .The accounting profession is currently grappling with a widespread and severe talent shortage, a crisis exacerbated by declining undergraduate enrollment in accounting programs and a significant decrease in candidates taking the CPA Exam. Data indicates that accounting graduates trended downward in the 2019/2020 academic year, with decreases of 2.8% at the bachelor’s level and 8.4% at the master’s level. Compounding this issue is a high turnover rate within the profession, with 82% of public accounting firms and 69% of private companies reporting significant retention challenges. The number of first-time CPA exam candidates also saw a substantial decline of 33% from 2016 to 2021. Various factors have contributed to this decline, including the perceived burden of the 150-hour education requirement, the perception of accounting as a “boring” field, the lower compensation compared to other majors like finance and technology, and the persistent lack of diversity within the profession.)

I am all of the aforesaid. In my defense, no one viewed me as being college material, 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, he died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21, my mother never attended high school, my ACT score was only 24, I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class, and I had to work my way through college. My critics/opponents stress that my parents raised me in Crete and that my father made enough money a) to send me to Missouri Synod Lutheran grade schools and b) to provide me with room and board while I took classed at UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969.

ILLINOIS TIMES
— Voter turnout analysis. DD: When Robert Novak ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Novak ) asked me why Bush did not get more votes in DuPage County in 2000 than he did, I immediately replied it was because of the Democrat invasion of the county.
https://www.illinoistimes.com/news-opinion/politics/voter-turnout-analysis/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In DuPage County, the preliminary number of Republicans casting ballots for governor fell almost 32 percent compared to four years ago. The DuPage Republican drop-off has been steady for years, coinciding with the party’s ever-shrinking success in the general election. Last week’s preliminary primary turnout in the former Republican bastion is about 49 percent below 2014 – the last year the state elected a Republican governor. Democratic turnout in DuPage, on the other hand, is so far up a whopping 45 percent compared to four years ago. Democratic primary turnout has greatly increased in the county since 2014, which was a horrible year for Democratic turnout throughout the state. That year was President Barack Obama’s second midterm and Gov. Pat Quinn went on to lose to Bruce Rauner in the general. DuPage Democratic turnout in the governor’s race this year is up 586 percent (that’s not a typo) from 2014. And unlike some other jurisdictions, DuPage Democratic turnout was significantly higher this spring (25 percent) than in the primary held during Trump’s first midterm election. Needless to say, those numbers cannot be providing any comfort to the shrinking number of Republican legislators and local officials who represent part or all of that county.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The Democrat Party platform is liberal. What distinguishes Democrat Party leadership in Illinois from Republican Party leadership in Illinois? Democrat Party leaders in Illinois defend and advance all the planks in the Democrat Party platform. But far too many Republican Party leaders in Illinois reject far too many planks in the Republican Party platform. Most commonly, they reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, anti-vice, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. Consequently, the following ever-increasingly increases in Illinois: dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, vice, gun control, 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. Far too many Republican Party leaders in Illinois talk and/or act like they want to viewed as being “Democrat Lite” if not anti-conservative. Ever-increasingly, Republican Party leaders in Illinois who are RINO if not Democrat plant destroy organizations and destroy individuals that support the aforesaid planks. – Dave Diersen

DD: Many, most, and at times, virtually all of my Post Office, IRS, and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrat veterans who blamed Republicans like me for America losing the Vietnam War. They especially blamed me because I was 1-A for the draft and I had avoided the draft with four student deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship deferment 1970-1971. Further, they hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I was an unmitigated disgusting coward because I probably would not have been sent into combat because I could not run because I had a bone disease, because my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and because I had partial red/green color blindness. They stressed that while my peers were dying in Vietnam, a) I bought new cars in 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, and 1973, b) I bought real estate in 1972 and 1974, c) I earned a bachelor’s degree in 1970 and almost completed the requirements for an MBA, and d) I went on vacations in 1969, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1974, and 1975.

— The Conversation About Women That We Don’t Need To Have. DD: All my Democrat superiors and supervisors in the federal government had spouses and children to support. They all painted themselves as being grossly underpaid. They all stressed the time and money needed to support their dependents. They were ever-increasingly furious a) that I never had dependents, b) that my wife had a good-paying job, and c) that we gave up trying to have children without trying IVF, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. My Democrat GAO superiors used that to justify a) forcing me to take a $23,699/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS when I was 31 in 1980, b) delaying my promotions and never promoting me beyond GS-13, c) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, and d) forcing me to retire when I was 49 in 1997.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The panel considered whether it was time to talk about a system where men (yes, specifically men) who were breadwinners for a wife and children should be paid more than other workers, in order to uplift and encourage the creation of that traditional family structure. The panel recognized that this is inconsistent with current law, yet seemed happy that such conversations were happening and hope that such policies might be possible in the future.)

REAL CLEAR DEFENSE
— Where Have All the Young Men Gone? DD: Did you enlist? What motivated you to get a college degree? My father often decried his not having a college degree. Because of that and because my parents lacked money, when I was a freshman and sophomore at Crete-Monee High School 1962-1964, my plan was to enlist and use the GI Bill to get a college degree. But one of my high school friends suggested that I consider working my way through college because I was taking college preparatory classes and I was in the upper 20% of my class. Then, another high school friend provided me with a model: get accepted by UIC and commute to/from classes there from my parents’ home in Crete. At the start of my junior year, got a job washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the SS Kresge in Chicago Heights. To get to/from that job and my parents’ home, I bought a 6-year-old car with money I had earned/saved doing yard work and delivering newspapers. I got an ACT score of 24 and I got accepted by UIC. Just before I graduated in June of 1966, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, a poor man’s GTO, with money I had earned/saved washing dishes. In December of 1967, I sold that Pontiac and bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 with the money I had earned/saved delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office. In December of 1968, I sold that Oldsmobile, I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE, and I transferred to NIU. In August of 1970, I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger. According to my critics/opponents, the real reason why I did the aforesaid was to avoid the Vietnam War draft. Admittedly, as the war dragged on, war protesters ever-increasingly demonized, denigrated, and condemned a) those who enlisted and b) those who did not avoid the draft.  My father died suddenly in October of 1969. I applied for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother. But potential employers saw me as being draft bait, they did not believe my application would be approved. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. It was for a job that did not really require a college degree. But then, my application was approved and because my lottery number was over 100, I was no longer subject to the draft. What if I had tried to enlist? I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness.
https://www.realcleardefense.com/articles/2026/03/23/where_have_all_the_young_men_gone_1171913.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When Richard Nixon ended the draft in January 1973, America lost something vital to its soul.  The quality of our military has not suffered. We have a splendid volunteer force defending our country and freedom right now. It’s the best educated, best trained, and best equipped force we have ever had. They are not the problem. The problem is that they represent only a very small fraction of America. For the first time in our history, the overwhelming majority of American families not only do not have a member in service, but they also don’t even know any family that does. 1973 was not the first time conscription was canceled. For the record, there was no national conscription before the Civil War…not for want of trying. General George Washington was frustrated with the unsoldierly quality of state militias during the Revolutionary War, and as president tried to register all males for military service. Congress blocked him. Conscription has been on-again-off-again our entire history to this day. So, Nixon’s draft cancellation cannot really be blamed for the decay of American culture. The problem was that our culture was already turning into a fetid sea, and the draft was a lifeboat. Besides shared contribution, experience and sacrifice, what we lost by ending the draft was character. Our country is in crisis, and most of our nation’s problems can be traced to the lack of character attributes that should be taught by mothers and fathers, and which are certainly instilled through military service: self-discipline, personal accountability, responsibility, self-reliance, selflessness, integrity, respect, and patriotism. Perhaps the greatest of these is discipline, from which all else must surely flow. Ask a strapping young man knocking about in life trying to find himself today, “Have you considered the military?” “Oh, no!” is a common response, “I couldn’t stand all that discipline.”  That is sad, and a sad commentary on what we have allowed to happen to our great country. “Country” is not synonymous with “nation.” Right now, the United States is Balkanizing itself, and worse, sinking into tribalism. Common values build a nation. The Kurds are a nation who have never had a country. The Jews are a nation that only recovered their country after 2000 years of exile, but half of whom are still spread around the world. The nationhood of both derives from shared values and history—not from politics, race, or regionalism. Of course, it’s more complex, but shared values are the core of nationhood. The United States of America has lost that. The draft could bring it back. “The Marine Corps builds men.” And women. So do the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Space Force. More than instilling character, the military exposes young people to milieus that he or she might never otherwise encounter. To use the current politically correct term “diversity:” the military is comprised of every race, religion, culture, ethnicity, economic class, education and experience that make up this great country coming together and working together on a level playing field. And building a national common denominator of shared experience and, yes, character traits. Bottom line, it is the military strength of our country that keeps us free, and that is a personal responsibility. Writing of “the necessity of obliging every citizen to be a soldier,” Thomas Jefferson said in a letter to James Monroe in 1813, “We must train…our citizens, and make military instruction a regular part of collegiate education. We can never be safe until this is done,” Restoring universal service would also put us on the road to restoring the nobility of character that Alexis de Tocqueville so admired in Americans in 1831. Mandatory non-military community service, as suggested by some, is a nice idea, but it is no substitute for Jefferson’s vision.)

— Gregory Bovino’s Final Days: Harsh Words and Few Regrets. He was the face of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. But as he begins a retirement that was not entirely voluntary, the Border Patrol leader says he did not go far enough. DD: Were you forced to retire early? Will you be forced to retire early? What if I had not succumbed to my Democrat GAO superiors’ threats and I had not retired early when I was 49 in 1997? They had threatened to make my next 6 years until I would be eligible for regular retirement to be a living hell for me. They had threatened to constructively demote me, to give me adverse transfers, unfair performance expectations, unfair performance appraisals, and to continue to rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. GAO was not unionized. It did not unionize until 2007. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should not have retired. I should have fought to keep my job a) because my critics/opponents have used my being forced to retire early against me so viciously and b) because of the tremendous loss of income that I have suffered and will suffer for the rest of my life.

While I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for GAO 1980-1997, the agencies provided me with lots of classroom training. But the Democrats who ran IRS and GAO wasted what I learned from that training as well as what I learned a) earning a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, b) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) earning a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DD: ACCORDING TO BREITBART: Cesar Chavez opposed illegal immigration every bit as much as Donald J. Trump. Chávez understood that illegal aliens undermined the wages of legal migrant workers and their union bargaining power. Cesar Chavez was so opposed to illegal immigration that, just like Minuteman Project of 2004, which was widely smeared in the legacy media as racist, Chavez put together his own militia to stop illegals from crossing the border. There are credible reports that violence was used as an example to others. To form his United Farmworkers Union (UFW), it was Chavez versus the growers, and for obvious reasons, the growers loved the open border. For just as obvious reasons, Chavez did not. And there you have it.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— There are far too many wrong reasons to vote for candidates. Far too many vote for Democrat and RINO candidates a) because they want to punish Trump, b) because the candidate hints/implies/argues/shouts that if elected, they will use government to give more preference to those who share the voter’s demographics and/or b) because the candidate and/or their spouse share the voter’s demographics. To get elected, ever-increasingly, Democrat and RINO candidates promise to use government to give more preference to voters who are Trump-haters, liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, non-rich, unmarried, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, and/or are in America illegally. To get elected, ever-increasingly, Democrat and RINO candidates promise to use government to promote more hatred against Trump, dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, vices, gun control, and Affirmative Acton and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. According to Google AI: Political analysts and ethicists point to several “wrong” or irrational reasons for casting a vote, generally defined as those that do not involve a critical assessment of a candidate’s qualifications, policies, or potential to contribute to the common good. Common examples of potentially poor reasons to vote for a candidate include: Party Loyalty Over Substance: Voting purely along party lines without examining the specific candidate’s platform or character, driven by a belief that it is wrong to abandon one’s party. Single-Issue Voting: Supporting or opposing a candidate based solely on their position on one specific issue, without weighing the candidate’s stance on a range of other important matters. Candidate’s Appearance or Charisma: Focusing on superficial traits like a candidate’s looks, how they speak, or their “celebrity” status, rather than their policy proposals or governing ability. One historical example cited is an elector in 1852 who objected to a candidate purely because “he wears mustachios”. Unrealistic or Impossible Promises: Being swayed by grand but unfeasible promises, such as instantly lowering grocery prices or ending a war overnight, without scrutinizing the practical means of achieving them. Fear and Prejudice: Allowing fear of an opposing group (e.g., immigrants, different religious groups, other political parties) to dictate a vote, rather than a thoughtful consideration of the candidates’ merits. Voting for “Free Things”: Supporting a candidate purely because they promise government benefits or “free” programs, without considering the economic feasibility or overall impact on society. Ballot Position: Choosing a candidate simply because they are listed higher on the ballot, which studies have shown can influence voters who have not researched the candidates. “Feel-Good” Citizenship: Voting based on prejudices or delusions, which may provide psychological pleasure to the voter but result in supporting policies contrary to their own or the public’s best interests. – Dave Diersen

I am a platform Republican. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform in conservative. – Dave Diersen

But with Affirmative Action and DEI, employers have ever-increasingly hired, retained, and promoted women over men.

All of them had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had fewer professional certifications than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had. During the last 8 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO, all my Chicago office superiors and supervisors were women who were younger than me and did not share my conservativism, my Republicanism, my religion (Protestant), or my national origin (German).

At least 186 (58%) cast Democrat ballots and at least 136 (42%) cast Republican ballots. In Illinois, it is public record that you voted in primaries and which party you cast a ballot for. As Democrat domination of Illinois becomes ever-increasingly absolute, anticipate/expect that because of fear of retaliation from Democrats, fewer and fewer and fewer Republican primary ballots will be cast. Because more and more and more employers in Illinois are Democrat or RINO, a) fewer and fewer and fewer Republicans will be hired and b) more and more and more Republicans will be gotten rid of. I have cast Republican primary ballots since I was 18 in 1966. I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997. They ever-increasingly used my being a Republican against me. They also knew that I was a draft avoider, Protestant, German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, I lived in Crete 1948-1972, and I lived in Wheaton since 1978 and they ever-increasingly used that against me. Federal employees who have the aforesaid demographics have no Civil Service protections.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Experts say turnout likely was affected by the number of contested races on the ballot as well as the strength of candidates.  . .DuPage County is currently reporting the highest turnout level at 24.6%, which could increase when mail-in stragglers are eventually reported. . .Party line voting data isn’t available just yet, but based on totals from statewide races, it’s clear many more Democratic ballots were pulled in the suburbs than Republican.)

— Pritzker administration opens down payment assistance program to spur homeownership. DD: In today’s dollars, my IRS Revenue Officer salary increased from $56,409/year to $68,999/year when I was 24 in 1972. That enabled me to buy a new townhome in University Park ( https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/774-Sunset-Ct-5-University-Park-IL-60484/5451474_zpid/ ). My critics/opponents were furious about that. They were even more furious than when I bought a new 1972 Corvette in 1971. In my defense, the down payment for the townhome came from what I had earned working for IRS for 15 months and for a Firestone Store part-time for 18 months and full-time for 7 months before that and half of the money for the Corvette came from an insurance settlement, the rest was a loan. According to my critics/opponents, I would not have been able to buy that Corvette or that townhome a) if I had not avoided the Vietnam War draft and b) if I had not been grossly overpaid by IRS. In my defense, I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970 and I completed a graduate evening business course at UIC in 1971 and four graduate evening business courses at Loyola in 1972. According to Zillow, the townhome is currently worth $87,100.

(FROM THE NEWSLETTER: STRATEGIC LAYUP: Darren Bailey, the Republican nominee for governor, and his wife, Cindy, made a surprise appearance courtside Thursday at the Chicago Bulls game, swapping campaign stops for slam dunks — at least for a night. The visit wasn’t just about basketball. Bailey has been signaling a push to boost his visibility in northern Illinois, where stronger margins could make a difference in a statewide race. Pic! Michael Whatley, the former chair of the Republican National Committee and the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in North Carolina, was in Chicago on Thursday to raise funds for his hotly contested campaign. Spotted at an event at Trump Tower were Don Tracy, the Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate in Illinois, and Ted Dabrowski, who lost his bid for governor earlier this week. Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich and a group of fellow, self-described “Trump-ocrats” were there, too, Blagojevich then co-hosted a dinner party at the O’Hare Hilton along with entrepreneur Ranko Ristic. Whatley faces Democrat Roy Cooper, in a competitive contest.)

They especially blamed me because I was a Republican, I was 1-A for the draft, and I had avoided the draft with four student deferments and a financial hardship deferment. Further, they hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I was an unmitigated disgusting coward because I probably would not have been sent into combat because I could not run because I had a bone disease, because my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and because I had partial red/green color blindness.

https://cis.org/Arthur/How-Worksite-Enforcement-Works. DD: All my employers would have hired noncitizens instead of me if they could have.
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A 1986 law makes it illegal for U.S. employers to hire aliens who are not authorized to work. Employers must verify that all their new employees are eligible to work and maintain records showing those employees are employment authorized. ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations Directorate (HSI) engages in “worksite enforcement” to ensure businesses are not employing unauthorized aliens. During worksite enforcement investigations, HSI can secure permission — from either the employer or a federal judge — to enter businesses and find illegal aliens. Traditionally, most immigration arrests occurred in worksites, not on the streets or in communities, and DHS should return to such an enforcement strategy.

The victory by Steve Toth, a hard-line Texas state representative, underscored how even a conservative House member could lose Republican voters by breaking with President Trump. DD: What do you say to my critics/opponents who demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me as being a Trump-lacky? They stress the many demographics that I share with Trump including Vietnam War draft avoider and Protestant.
https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/04/us/elections/texas-district-2-primary.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mr. Toth, 65, said in an interview before the election that he decided to challenge Mr. Crenshaw after watching him work with Democrats on a failed bipartisan immigration enforcement deal in 2024, during the waning months of the Biden administration. But some of Mr. Crenshaw’s troubles could be traced to his break with the president over his efforts to reverse the result of the 2020 election. Mr. Toth said that Mr. Crenshaw had lost many Republican primary voters in the deeply conservative district, Texas’s Second Congressional, by attacking fellow Republicans who questioned the 2020 results. Mr. Crenshaw, 41, has been a regular on cable news, offering praise to Mr. Trump in his second term. He has explained his “gruff” demeanor and breaks with fellow Republicans as deriving from his combat experience in Afghanistan, during which he lost an eye. “In the end, I’m doing the job I’m supposed to be doing,” he said in an interview before the vote. “I’m telling you the truth.”)

FORBES
— What 10 Companies Discovered When They Took Action On Skills-First Hiring. DD: What skills do you have? GAO audits IRS. When I transferred to GAO from IRS when I was 31 in 1980, I brought with me almost 9 years of knowledge of IRS systems, policies, procedures, operations, terminology, etc. The last 5 1/2 years of that knowledge I acquired at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $100,059-$113,402/year. But my Democrat GAO superiors wasted my knowledge of IRS. They succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS until 1986 when the GAO manager who had arranged my transfer got back into power, got me assigned me to audits of IRS, and promoted me to GS-13, currently $118, 984/year. But then my Democrat GAO superiors a) forced him to retire, b) threw me off audits of IRS at the end of 1988 for the rest of my GAO career, c) gave me a bad job assignment, gave me unfair performance expectations, gave me an unfair performance appraisal, and ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance (PFP) in 1989, d) ranked me in the lower half of my coworkers for PFP for the rest of my GAO career, and e) forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997. While I worked on audits for 3 years, none of those audits were on IRS’s Collection Division, the division that I had most knowledge of. My Democrat GAO superiors also wasted what I had learned a) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, f) earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading in 1997, etc. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran.

ATHENS BANNER-HERALD
— Looking for work? DD: Are you looking for work? Have you looked for work? After my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, I soon gave up looking for work because no employer would hire me because they had taken so many adverse actions against me. They had a) forced me to take a $23,699 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980, b) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, c) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for them, and d) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. Previously, my Democrat IRS superiors had a) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and c) never promoted me beyond GS-12. Previously, my Democrat Post Office superiors had disallowed my sick leave requests in 1968 and 1969 and forced me to resign in 1969. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. The aforesaid adverse actions rendered worthless my job-related bachelor’s degree, my three job-related master’s degrees, my six job-related professional certifications, and my job-relate professional license.

— In Illinois, to cast a Republican or Democrat ballot in a primary is to publicly declare your political affiliation for the next 2 years. I have always cast Republican primary ballots. For Democrats, the federal government exists to hire, retain, and promote Democrats. My Democrat superiors in the federal government have always known that I have always cast Republican primary ballots. Notwithstanding that, the Democrats who ran the Post Office in 1966, IRS in 1971, and GAO in 1980 hired me anyway. They could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. They erroneously believed that if they took enough adverse actions against me, I would become a Democrat. My Democrat Post Office superiors disallowed my sick leave requests in 1968 and 1969 and forced me to resign in 1969. My Democrat IRS superiors a) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and c) never promoted me beyond GS-12.

According to Democrat leaders, Jesus wants to replace those who are conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, married, heterosexual, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time with those who are liberal/moderate, Democrat, noncitizen, minority, female, younger, poor, unmarried, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. How successful have Democrat leaders been taking over your church?

WASHINGTON POST
— ICE training was slashed, records show, corroborating whistleblower claims. Previously unreported records also offer new details about what was cut from ICE’s basic training program. Concerns about the quality of ICE agents’ training have mounted for months. DD: The first 6 months that I worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer in 1971 was classroom training. I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step-1-5 Levels, currently $100,059-$113,402/year. GAO audits IRS. I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 in 1980. The Democrats who ran GAO wasted my knowledge of IRS. They succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.

LOS ANGELES TIMES
— Trump administration plan could restrict work permits for asylum seekers for years. DD: All my employers would have hired noncitizens instead of me if they could have. My critics/opponents cannot say that because they did not have to take bad jobs because they had wealthy parents. Noncitizens work for less money. Employers want cheap labor. Noncitizens are easier to exploit.

FED MANAGER
— OPM Formally Proposes Major Overhaul of Federal Performance Ratings. DD: My Democrat superiors always used the subjectivity in their performance rating systems to justify the adverse actions that they took against me. I should write about the many big adverse actions that they took against me. At the Post Office, they disallowed my sick leave requests in 1968 and 1969 and forced me to resign in 1969. At IRS, they disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12. At GAO, they forced me to take a $23,699 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980, delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, and forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997.

CPA PRACTICE ADVISOR
— Illinois CPA Society Accepting Accounting Scholarship Applications. DD: Choosing the right college major is extremely important. I should have majored in accounting from the beginning, but I did not until I was 27 when I started taking graduate evening accounting courses at DePaul. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul when I was 31. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32. I became a licensed CPA when I was 32. But by then, the accounting profession had no interest in me a) because it viewed me as being too old and b) because my demographics were terrible. The profession was under tremendous pressure to advance minorities and females. Why didn’t I major in accounting from the beginning? I erroneously believed that because I was not strong in math, I could never pass the CPA examination. But I belatedly came to realize that accountants do not use the types of math that I was not strong in.

MEAWW
— Coons pressed Noem under oath to rule out deploying ICE agents to polling places ahead of the 2026 midterms. Noem repeatedly stated there are “no plans” for officers at polling locations but refused to definitively rule it out. DD: If Democrat leaders are not having their illegals use their false identifications to vote, why are Democrat leaders so hyper about this? Anticipate/expect that Democrat leaders have their illegals bring Democrats who share their demographics to the polls.
