— Adam Andrzejewski’s commitment to transparency doesn’t extend to his own biography – Kim Janssen  (DIERSEN: Based on this, the Chicago Tribune wants me to provide even more details on why I am no longer the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, the Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster, an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member,  an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, a GAO employee, an IRS employee, etc.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chicagoinc/ct-100k-forbes-0728-chicago-inc-20170727-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: He’ll surely be happy, then, to clear up any confusion over his 2010 Republican primary campaign, which he describes in his biography on his organization’s website as ending in “a close loss on Election Day.”  Andrzejewski came in fifth, out of six declared candidates, with 14 percent of the vote. “It was a very credible campaign,” he told Inc. “I only lost by 40,000 votes.” Technically, it was 44,497. But who’s counting?)

— Des Plaines spent $189,000 in failed legal fight to fire cop – Chacour Koop  (DIERSEN: If I had not taken my Democrat GAO superiors’ early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, how many millions of taxpayer dollars would they have spent to fire me?  Who would have come to my defense – a) Republicans who have represented me in the U.S. Congress, U.S. Senate, Illinois General Assembly, Illinois Senate, Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, my precinct and/or b) the Republican Party, the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), my representative on the IRP State Central Committee, the DuPage County Republican Central Committee, the Milton Township Republican Central Committee?  Provably none of the aforesaid because they overwhelmingly reject the Rutan decision (http://www.nytimes.com/1996/03/13/us/seeking-return-to-ways-of-patronage-in-politics.html) and they promote patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.)

— What Illinois stands to gain from losing huge Foxconn factory- GREG HINZ  (DIERSEN: QUESTION: What did I “gain” by taking my Democrat GAO superiors’ early retirement “offer” on September 30, 1997 when I was 49 years old?  ANSWER: No longer having to come to work and enduring their tremendous efforts to get rid of me. QUESTION: What did I lose?  First, the difference between my salary ($122,991/year in today’s dollars) an my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension (currently $50,856/year) or $72,135/year in today’s dollars until I would taken regular retirement and then the difference between what my CSRS pension would have been (much more than $50,856/year) and $50,856/year for the rest of my life.  So far, during the last 238 months, I have lost $1,430,856 in today’s dollars, that is, what my salary would have been ($2,439,500) minus the CSRS pension payments that I have received ($1,008,644). But the lost money is nothing compared to the ammunition that my Democrat GAO superiors gave my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes.  They use my being forced to take early retirement to hint/imply/argue/shout that I must be a racist, a sexist, a bigot, or even far worse things.)

DAILY CALLER
— IRS Continues To Hire Employees With Performance Problems – Chuck Ross  (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always promoted patronage. Because I have always been a Republican, were it not for federal civil service protections, IRS would NOT have a) hired me in 1971, b) promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, or c) let me work there for almost 9 years. To get rid of me, my Democrat IRS superiors a) got rid of the IRS manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, b) disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974 (SEE: http://www.gao.gov/products/463866), c) did not promote me beyond GS-12, and d) disallowed my education deductions in 1978. My Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates dismissed/belittled the fact that a) I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and c) I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980.)

In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F.  Further, according to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece.)

— Preparing for a Mixed Generation Household  (DIERSEN: If I sought a government office or a political office, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would shout that after I graduated from NIU in August of 1970 when I was 21, I lived with my mother and brother who is 5 years younger than me in Crete until September of 1972. But that was a) because my father had died suddenly at age 47 in October of 1969, b) because my mother had never attended high school and she had never earned income, c) because I had applied for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support them, and d) because the job that I had gotten working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights did not pay that much. In June of 1971, I started working for IRS at the GS-7 level (currently $44,853/year), and in June of 1972, IRS promoted me to GS-9 (currently $54,864/year).)

— DuPage County Board member John Curran appointed to state Senate vacancy – Katie Smith
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170722/dupage-county-board-member-appointed-to-state-senate-vacancy
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Under state election law, a new member of the Republican party must be appointed to the DuPage County Board within 60 days of Curran’s resignation, which he plans to officially submit Monday, he said. Residents of District 3, which includes parts of Downers Grove, Westmont, Burr Ridge, Hinsdale, Woodridge, Clarendon Hills, Darien and Willowbrook, can apply to at Dupageco.org/countyboard/dist3map. The newly appointed board member will serve the remainder of Curran’s term, which expires Nov. 30, 2018. County Board Chairman Dan Cronin said in a news release Saturday that he will fill Curran’s vacancy until an appointment is made. “While we will truly miss his work and his dedication to DuPage County, we are happy to see him moving on to bigger challenges,” Cronin said. “I’m confident Springfield is gaining an asset who will fight to protect residents of Illinois.” Anyone seeking appointment to the county board should email Cronin at Dan.Cronin@dupageco.org with a resume and letter, not exceeding 300 words, outlining their interest.)

They would demonize, denigrate, and condemn the fact that I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981. They would stress that I took CPA and CIA examination review courses and that others got higher scores on the examinations than I did. They would demonize, denigrate, and condemn the fact that I became a licensed CPA in 1981, a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) in 1990, a Certified Government Financial Manager (CGFM) in 1994, a Certified Financial Services Auditor (CFSA) in 1996, and a Forensic Accountant (FA) in 1997.  They would stress that became a CFE, CGFM, CFSA, and FA by grand fathering and not by passing an examination.)

LINCOLN JOURNAL STAR
— DREAM Act divisive, elitist – RUBEN NAVARRETTE JR. (DIERSEN: From what I see, to curry favor with Democrats, employers want to gloat that they hire illegals, and that to make way for them, they do not hire citizens of America and that they get rid of citizens of America.)
http://journalstar.com/opinion/columnists/ruben-navarrette-dream-act-divisive-elitist/article_58cdae0d-39bb-588f-af15-c17ff32892f2.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What bothered her was the insistence on going to college. What about those kids who go to vocational school or go straight to work? They didn’t deserve legal status? Someone in Washington was playing God again, deciding who stayed and who went according to a narrow definition of positive behavior. Why stop at attending college? Why not demand that beneficiaries of the DREAM Act not accept any public assistance, or abstain from smoking, or never fall into debt or not be unemployed for more than six months at any point in their lives? The new bill from Graham and Durbin is a slight improvement because it covers those who “work lawfully for at least three years.” But it also has a new requirement that recipients speak English and know U.S. history. Great idea. But shouldn’t we start by demanding those things from native-born U.S. citizens? These moral judgments are all subjective and awfully condescending. They’re all about what Graham, Durbin, and the other senators who will eventually support their bill require to make them feel comfortable with overlooking the fact that these young people are in the country illegally. Welcome to this week’s episode of the game show: “Good Immigrant, Bad Immigrant.” If Graham and Durbin want to make themselves useful in the immigration debate, they should stop treating immigrants like they’re some kind of social science experiment. Instead, they should draft a bill that would eventually legalize most of the 11 million people who are in the country illegally — whether or not they went to college or speak English. It’s no wonder that so many DREAMers experience a version of “survivor’s guilt” because they were tossed a life preserver while their parents and siblings are left to drown. All this talk about how the Trump administration is dividing families. You know what really divides families? The DREAM Act.)

Virtually everyone panders to, serves as an operative for, or serves as a dupe for those who have the most religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in their municipality, in their township/ward, in their county, in Illinois, in America, and in the world. I should write a book about those in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and Illinois who focus on pandering to, on serving as an operative for, and on serving as a dupe for those who have the most religious, government, political, and/or financial clout.)

NPR ILLINOIS
— Rauner Sending A Message With Staff Shakeup – SEAN CRAWFORD  (DIERSEN: Since the 1960s, the Democrats who run the federal government have used their hiring, retention, and promotion policies to send a message, namely, that if you are not a Democrat, a minority, a female, or young, do not seek a federal job or try to hold on to a federal job.  It is called patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion. Because I have always been a Republican, were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)

TMN
— DeSantis introduces bill to provide greater transparency over govt. pensions – Bryan Renbaum  (DIERSEN: Andrzejewski wants to know for federal retires like me: “Who is retired, where they worked, who they are, how much they got, how long they worked, how much they paid into the system.” Since 1966, when I was 18 years old, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me for earning credits toward a Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension. Since 1997, when I was 49 years old, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me for collecting a $50,856 CSRS pension in today’s dollars.  While I worked part-time for the Post Office 1966-1969, for IRS 1971-1980, and for GAO 1980-1997, I paid into the CSRS $70,932 in yesterday’s dollars (7% of my salary). In today’s dollars, my ending GAO salary was $122,991. So far, in today’s dollars, CSRS has paid me $1,008,644 (238 months X $4,238). Andrzejewski should acknowledge that if my Democrat GAO superiors had not been allowed/encouraged to force me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997, I might still be working for GAO, still paying 7% of my salary into the CSRS, and CSRS would not have paid me anything. I should write a book about those who allowed/encouraged my Democrats GAO superiors to force me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997.  They certainly did not side with me in Diersen v. GAO.)
http://www.talkmedianews.com/featured/2017/07/12/desantis-introduces-bill-provide-greater-transparency-govt-pensions/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) told TMN Wednesday that today he will formally introduce legislation aimed at providing greater transparency over government-funded pensions. “Let’s open the books on the federal pension data. Taxpayers have a right to know how their money is being spent and let’s just put that information out there for public consumption,” DeSantis said. “It’s very difficult, I think, to be opposed to that concept and so I think we’ll probably get pretty strong support,” he added. The Taxpayer-Funded Pension Disclosure Act of 2017 will be reviewed by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. Adam Andrzejewski, founder and CEO of the Illinois-based nonprofit taxpayer watchdog group Open the Books, spoke alongside DeSantis and said his organization worked with the congressman’s office for three months to help craft the legislation. Andrzejewski said passage of the measure would constitute a landmark victory for transparency advocates. “For the first time it would make subject to the Freedom of Information Act the release of: Who is retired, where they worked, who they are, how much they got, how long they worked, how much they paid into the system – so we can finally bring hard data to the issues of pensions,” he explained. Andrzejewski said research by Moodys suggests that taxpayers on average foot the bill for about $150 billion per year in federal pension funds and that the number increases to about $3.5 trillion when unfunded liabilities are considered. “The amount of money that goes out in terms of retirement annuities each year dwarfs the budget of the state of Texas or dwarfs the budget in the state of Florida each year,” he explained.)

— Electric Cars Are the Future? Not So Fast  Though they’re no longer ugly, impossibly expensive and impractical, electric vehicles need to out-innovate fossil fuels if they are ever to displace the internal combustion engine –  Greg Ip   (DIERSEN: Those who hate “gas and diesel” cars promote “electric” cars. Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) hate cars, and especially cars made by General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler, b) hate those who own/owned cars made by General Motors, Ford, or Chrysler, and c) hate unions and past, present, and future union members.  I was a union member for almost 12 years.

http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-naperville-township-lawsuit-dismissed-st-0630-20170628-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: An Illinois Appellate Court has dismissed a lawsuit filed against the Naperville Township supervisor and two board trustees by the now-former highway commissioner over their decision to slash his budget. The suit was filed in 2016 by then-Highway Commissioner Stan Wojtasiak against then-Supervisor Rachel Ossyra and then-trustees Janice Anderson and Kerry Malm, charging their 2016 action to cut his budget by 21 percent — $540,000 — was retaliatory and politically motivated. In their decision, appellate Justices Kathryn Zenoff and Joseph Birkett ruled Wojtasiak’s case was moot because all of the officials named in the complaint are out of office and the township’s 2016-17 fiscal year concluded March 31. Anderson was elected to the DuPage County Board, and Wojtasiak, Ossyra and Malm lost their seats to Democratic candidates in the spring primary. A 2017-18 budget was adopted recently by the new board.)

— The Republicaid Party?  Some GOP Senators are shrinking from entitlement reform. – Editorial
https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-republicaid-party-1498690805
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the Senate health-care bill delayed for now, the conservative and more centrist GOP wings need to bridge a philosophical gap to succeed. The outcome of this debate will define what the Republican Party stands for—and whether the problems of America’s entitlement state can ever be solved. The biggest policy divide concerns the future of Medicaid, and here the problem is the moderates who are acting like liberals. Despite their campaign rhetoric, some Senators now want to ratify ObamaCare’s Medicaid expansion as an unrepealable and unreformable welfare program. Most of the Affordable Care Act’s insurance coverage gains have come from opening Medicaid eligibility beyond its original goal of helping the poor and disabled to include prime-age, able-bodied adults. The federal-state program has become the world’s single largest insurer by enrollment, covering more people than Medicare or the British National Health Service. Total spending grew 18% in 2015 and 17% in 2016 in the 29 states that expanded, and the nearby chart shows the growth of overall federal Medicaid spending under current law and without reform.)

Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes use that against me. They stress that at least through the 1970s, Crete residents were overwhelming German-American Lutherans. They hint/imply/argue/shout that at least though the 1970s, Crete was full of racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse people. All of my ancestors are German-American Lutherans and they have lived in Crete since 1854. I lived in Crete 1948-1972. I did not move to Wheaton until 1978.  My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton continue to paint me as being a German American, a Lutheran, a racist, a sexist, a bigot, and even worse things. They talk and act like they want me to sue them for slander.  How should I react to that?)

ROCHELLE NEWS
— Consolidation of roads, bridges could mean shift at township levels – Lori Hammelman
https://rochellenews-leader.com/article/consolidation-of-roads-bridges-could-mean-shift-at-township-levels
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lt. Gov. weighs in  Ill. Lt. Gov. Evelyn Sanguinetti last week applauded the passage of the bill that would allow township trustees to initiate these referendums, which could lead to a consolidation. Currently only township trustees in Cook County have this power. Two Cook County townships have successfully initiated and passed referendums to consolidate their road districts. It is said officials from both of these townships anticipate greater service efficiencies, thus taxpayer savings from consolidation. “I applaud the General Assembly for passing this bill to give all townships – not just those in Cook County – the authority to consolidate as they deem necessary,” said Lt. Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti.  “We pay the highest property taxes in the nation and, not coincidentally, we have more units of government than any other state.  This bill is the start of a larger effort to give both citizens and local boards the power to consolidate government.” Another supporter of the bill is State Representative Tom Demmer. “I’m glad to support this bill which empowers voters to choose what’s best for their community,” said Rep. Demmer. “If consolidation makes sense for them, they can now choose to lower the cost of government and reduce their tax burden.”)

It’s actually very common. “The vast majority of people who do the National Security Agency’s intercept work, who translate and analyze — most of them are fresh out of high school,” said Matthew Aid, an intelligence historian who has written about the NSA. “There are thousands and thousands of 18 to 21-year-olds doing critically important and secret work around the world.”)
