I was eligible because I had 25 years of federal service – 13 with GAO, 9 with IRS, and 3 with the Post Office. They succeeded in forcing me to retire in 1997 just before their “offer” expired. If I had not succumbed, I would not have been eligible for regular retirement until 2003. Things that I did that helped me survive 1993-1997 include my a) earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading in 1997, b) my becoming a Certified Forensic Accountant in 1997, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Fraud Examiner in 1990, Internal Auditor and licensed CPA in 1981, and CPA in 1979, and c) my earning master’s degrees in accounting from DePaul in 1980 and in business from Loyola in 1976.)

(FROM IRS: As a Revenue Officer, you will conduct tax related civil enforcement investigations, and will be trained in tax law, collection, and civil investigative techniques, to collect delinquent taxes and tax returns. Most of your work is in the field, where you will interact with taxpayers, taxpayer representatives, and third parties at their residences and/or places of business. You will protect taxpayers’ rights, counsel taxpayers on their obligations, and determine how to resolve tax delinquencies.)

BLACK PRESS
— In a historic step toward economic justice and accountability, Illinois State Representative Sonya Harper has introduced HB1227 to create the Enslavement Era Disclosure and Redress Act, marking a major milestone in the fight for reparative justice. This legislation means that any corporation or institution with ties to enslavement or the transatlantic slave trade discloses its historical involvement and provides redress if it wishes to do business with the State of Illinois. (COMMENT: Soon, if not already, Illinois Democrats will force everyone in Illinois to disclose their ties to enslavement or the transatlantic slave trade. All my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s from what is now Germany. In their defense, they always lived in northeast Illinois. On my mother’s side, they sharecropped and then bought and operated a farm in Grant Park along the Indiana border. On my father’s side, they worked in a brick factory in Chicago, then homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete Township, then raised and sold horses just north of downtown Crete, and then operated Crete’s only hardware store.)

— Do you live in Illinois? Did you vote for Trump? If you live in Illinois and you voted for Trump, what are you doing to protect yourself from Pritzker? Pritzker ever-increasingly makes it clear that he is going to get rid of the 2.4 million in Illinois who voted for Trump. What makes you more vulnerable? The less money that you have, the more vulnerable that you are. The fewer who voted for Trump in your county, township, municipality, school district, and precinct, the more vulnerable that you are. In my precinct, only 373 voted for Trump, but 478 voted for Harris. – Dave Diersen

— Everyone knows that virtually all asylum and refugee claims are false. Everyone knows that citizens of foreign countries come to America illegally and/or stay in America illegally because Democrat and RINO leaders want them to and because they know that Democrat and RINO leaders will give free housing, free food, free clothing, free medical care, free education, free transportation, free etc., Everyone knows a) that virtually all illegals want/need/demand tremendous government assistance, b) that virtually all illegals lack education and/or job skills, and c) that many if not most illegals have health and/or other problems. Democrat leaders want illegals because sooner or later, if not already, illegals vote for Democrats. RINOs want illegals because RINOs want cheap labor. – Dave Diersen

AMERICAN THINKER
— Donald Trump’s inauguration has revealed the existence of two realities inhabiting the same plane of existence. Normal Americans—largely but not exclusively Republicans—inhabit actual, objective, scientifically examined reality. Democrat/socialist/communist (D/s/c) reality is a Bizzarro World/backward existence where Normal American victims are aggressors and D/s/c aggressors are victims. It’s a world of self-delusion, raging, drooling, and terminal Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers.

— To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. To give preference to those who are Democrat, liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time is to discriminate against those who are Republican, conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time.

TASK & PURPOSE
— Two officers were fired for bucking their chain of command. Now they’re going to work at the Pentagon. Along with Trump’s nominee for defense secretary Pete Hegseth, both men have criticized military diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, or DEI. (COMMENT: Since at least the 1960s, the federal government has been a Democrat Party patronage machine. Because I opposed their political affiliation discrimination, their reverse discrimination, and their age discrimination, and because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997. Previously, they had delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980 and was finally able to assign me to audits of IRS and promote me in 1986, kept me off audits of IRS for all by 3 years (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $23,472 pay cut (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. Previously, because of my aforesaid opposition, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, got rid of the IRS manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12. Previously, because of my aforesaid opposition, my Democrat Post Office superiors disallowed my sick leave requests in 1968 and 1969 and forced me to resign in 1969.)

REASON
— Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that Trump and everyone who voted for him are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all. Anticipate/expect that Pritzker will ever-increasingly get rid of the 2.4 million in Illinois who voted for Trump last year.
https://reason.com/volokh/2025/01/22/calling-someone-white-supremacist-in-online-debate-is-opinion/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Calling Someone “White Supremacist” in Online Debate Is Opinion and thus not actionable defamation, unless defendant “implies undisclosed facts by insinuating that the plaintiff” engaged in specific racist acts or made (undisclosed) racist statements. This is the standard view under American defamation law; it had in the past been applied to allegations of Communism, Socialism, etc., but more recently has often been applied to allegations of racism, sexism, white supremacy, etc.)
