CHICAGO SUN-TIMES & WBEZ
— Duckworth hammers President Trump over veterans’ care. Duckworth went off on the Trump administration’s proposed cuts to services for veterans. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, many, most, and at times, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrat veterans. They promoted the veterans preference and stressed that I had avoided the Vietnam War draft. According to them, Democrat veterans should have gotten all the promotions that I got. I should write about my Democrat superiors in the federal government who were veterans and who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

— Trump is conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and his ancestors have been in America for a long time. Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly hate Trump. What are your demographics? What will your future be? In Illinois, the more demographics that you share with Trump, the bleaker that your future is.

— Chicago Flips Red founder Zoe Leigh said Pritzker is the one who is a threat. “He is a threat to the state of Illinois being the governor. Our mayor is a threat to the city of Chicago being the mayor, because they don’t care about the Chicago citizens’ safety. If they did, we wouldn’t be a sanctuary state any more,” Leigh said. . .Chicago Flips Red vice president Danielle Carter-Walters said crimes involving noncitizen migrants were not reported. “They were not recording anything that they did illegally. They just let it slide, let it go away. We know for a fact they are not reporting the illegal alien crime,” Carter-Walters told The Center Square.

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Supreme Court expected to consider giving Trump more firing power, overruling 90-year-old precedent. The justices and judges in Diersen v GAO ( https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf ) ruled that federal agencies can force their employees to retire, that is, they can fire their employees, a) because they are active members in class action lawsuits that charge them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, or retaliation, b) because they oppose political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, or national origin discrimination, and/or c) because they are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time.

WHITE HOUSE
— Extension of Hiring Freeze. All during the almost 18 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO, the agency was almost always under Gingrich-caused hiring freezes and/or promotion freezes. My Democrat GAO superiors punished me severely because of that. They forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay for performance purposes. They forced me to retire when I was 49 years old. They flushed down their toilets my three job-related master’s degrees, my six job-related professional certifications, and my job-related professional license. What does Gingrich have to say about that? If Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it, there would be no need for DOGE.

Democrat leaders and their mainstream news media ever-increasingly a) demonize, denigrate, and condemn Trump and everything that Trump says and does and b) hint/imply/argue/shout that local Democrats should punish local Republicans to punish Trump. If you are a Republican registered voter, anticipate/expect that local Democrats will ever-increasingly ostracize you if not take adverse actions against you. What are the following doing to defend/advance Trump: a) the leaders of your Republican township and county party organizations, b) the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, c) Republican elected officials in your area, and d) conservative and religious leaders and activists in your area? – Dave Diersen

— What harmed your career the most? For me, first, it was my Firestone Store manager’s disapproval of my demographics. Firestone Store’s District Office hired me and assigned me to his store in 1970. He never would have hired me. He vehemently disapproved of my avoiding the Vietnam War draft. Then it was Oldsmobile’s withdrawing its job offer because it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint in 1971. That ended my career in automotive industry. My Firestone Store manager rudely fired me because I accepted that offer. I accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 because I had to have a job. Then it was my Democrat IRS superiors’ success in getting rid of the manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. Then it was my Democrat GAO superiors’ success in getting rid of the manager who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors got rid of the aforesaid managers because they had advanced me instead of advancing my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. But then, more significantly, it was my opposing my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors’ race and gender based preference giving, their political affiliation discrimination, their reverse discrimination, their age discrimination, their religious discrimination, and their national origin discrimination. But then, even more significantly, it was my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in 1988. – Dave Diersen

— What helped your career the most? For me, it was my a) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, f) my earning more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and g) my earning a master’s degree in finance in 1997. If I had not done the aforesaid, a) IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and b) GAO would not have hired me in 1980, promoted me in 1986, or let me work as long as it did. – Dave Diersen

What do Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders have to do to turn Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton red? They have to defend and advance conservative principles, that is, they have to defend and advance the Republican Party platform including its personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. They have to show how following conservative principles helped them succeed. They have to stop being Democrat Lite. They have to stop being anti-conservative. – Dave Diersen

DAILY HERALD
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG PICTURE: Democrat leaders crow about their success in defeating Republican township candidates. I should compare and contrast the eight Democrat Milton Township candidates who won with their eight Republican opponents who lost. For the April 1 election, what if Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders had promoted Trump’s policies as strongly as Democrat candidates, elected officials, and party leaders demonized, denigrated, and condemned Trump’s policies?
https://www.dailyherald.com/20250412/news/suburban-blue-wave-hits-township-races/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Suburban Democratic leaders say anger over the policies of President Donald Trump’s administration helped spur voters to action. “The best way to go against Trump and Musk is to put Democrats in office,” said Mark Guethle, chairman of the Democratic Party of Kane County. He said the township wins will help Democrats build a bench of candidates for future races for higher office. “Eventually, those people move up,” Guethle said. . .DuPage GOP leader Kevin Coyne said Republican candidates “ran good campaigns” but faced a “perfect storm of issues,” including an infusion of cash from the Democratic Party of Illinois to help bolster their candidates, the Trump factor, a demographic shift in the state as Republicans leave Illinois and being outpaced by Democrats in vote-by-mail ballots. . .McCollum, however, pointed to Election Day tallies and noted the majority of Democrats in contested races fared better when just looking at in-person Election Day vote tallies. He argued the bigger issue in the local races was Trump. . .Newly elected township officials plan to use these wins to focus on issues such as mental health care or other social assistance programs — services Democratic leaders fear may suffer under Trump’s administration.)

— Wheaton alumni single out ‘critical race theorist’ professor as example of leftist infiltration
https://www.christianpost.com/news/wheaton-alumni-single-out-critical-race-theorist-professor.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Alumni of Wheaton College concerned about the school’s alleged leftward drift recently singled out a philosophy professor at the school as an example of liberalism seeping into the flagship Evangelical institution. Nathan Cartagena, Ph.D., who has been an assistant professor of philosophy at Wheaton College since 2018, has repeatedly exhibited “left-wing racial politics laundered through a patina of ‘Christianese,'” according to an analysis of his writings posted on the website “For Wheaton.” Educated at Grove City College, Texas A&M University and Baylor University, Cartagena’s profile asserts that he specializes in Thomas Aquinas, civil rights activist James Baldwin, Critical Race Theory, military ethics, “Evangélic@ Theology,” and Christian pedagogy.)

WASHINGTON POST
— Younger Democrats want to force an uncomfortable conversation about age. Many complain the party is dominated by an older generation of leaders who have lost touch with Americans’ day-to-day struggles. Democrat and RINO leaders use up-or-out, that is, age discrimination, to get rid of Republicans. Republicans should know that Democrat and RINO leaders will get rid of you if you are not making say a) $100,000/year by age 25, c) $200,000/year by age 30, d) $300,000/year by age 35, e) $400,000/year by age 40, f) etc.

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— We Had Been Scraping By on Two Paychecks. Now We Have One. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. In today’s dollars, a) my GAO salary was $153,151/year and b) my Civil Service Retirement System pension is $66,780/year. That means that my wife and I have had $86,371/year less income since 1997.

— Republicans in Congress are drafting a tax bill that raises the state and local tax deduction cap for individuals from $10,000 to $25,000. I started itemizing when I was 24 years old in 1972 and my wife and I started in 1978. We paid less federal income tax because of that. But SALT ended all that. My critics/opponents have been furious that we have paid less federal income tax by itemizing. They want SALT and they do not want the SALT cap to be increased.

FORBES
— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly position themselves as being protectors of disadvantaged/marginalized/oppressed groups. They ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that Republicans cause all the problems that members of those groups have. Members of those groups include those who are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, in America illegally, have less money than others, have financial, health, and or other problems, boozers, gamblers, stoners, prostitutes, and criminals.

LATIN TIMES
— More Elected Democrats Are Becoming Republicans As The GOP Strengthens Grip On Texas. As the Democrat Party tightens its grip on Illinois, on DuPage County, on Milton Township, and on Wheaton, anticipate/expect that more elected Republicans will officially become Democrats. Anticipate/expect that sooner or later, all my critics/opponents who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican will officially become Democrats. They all have always been anti-religious, anti-conservative, and/or anti-Republican. They all have always been RINOs if not Democrat plants. I should write about them. I would focus on those who have had their operatives and dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately.
