My GAO career went downhill fast after my Democrat GAO superiors got rid of the GAO manager who hired me in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986.

— Trump shames Sessions amid shake-up speculation Advisers said Trump was considering whether to make a change. Sessions, an Eagle Scout, was noticeably absent on a West Virginia stage as Trump spoke to a Boy Scout jamboree. – JOSH DAWSEY, ELIANA JOHNSON, NAHAL TOOSI and DANIEL LIPPMAN (DIERSEN: In what ways have your critics/opponents succeeded in shaming you? My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, 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 an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, my service as a Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster in 2010 and 2004, my Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee membership in 2007, and my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004. How do you deal with those who shame you? So far, my policy has been to forgive those who trespass against me, but I am reconsidering that.)

UPI
— JULY 25: In 1978, the world’s first “test-tube” baby, Louise Brown, was born in Oldham, England. My wife and I were married on April 1, 1978. Because we gave up trying to have children without trying the test tube baby procedure, because we did not adopt, and because we did not become foster parents, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates demonized, denigrated, and condemned me. They compared and contrasted me adversely with one of my Democrat female coworkers who did not abort her child who had Down Syndrome. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, or a veteran.)

They stress that I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 and that I was never promoted beyond that. They stress a) that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, 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 an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980; b) that my Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974; and c) that my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

It is called patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, retaliation, Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion.)
