— Saigon fell 50 years ago. Back then, I was a 26-year-old IRS employee. Virtually all of my superiors and supervisors were Democrat veterans. They blamed non-veteran Republicans for the fall of Saigon. I was one of an extremely few non-veteran Republicans in the office. My Democrat IRS superiors and supervisors who were veterans held my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me big time. They had disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974. They had made it clear that they would never promote me to GS-13. They disallowed my education deductions in 1978. They ignored/dismissed/belittled my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979.

Trump is conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and his ancestors have been in America for a long time.

Weight savings could be substantial, with up to 2,000 pounds cut from total vehicle mass, improving EV efficiency, performance, and reducing manufacturing costs. Production challenges remain, with high costs and manufacturing difficulties still to overcome before the technology can be widely adopted.)

Overall Ford brand sales slipped 1.2%, highlighting growing consumer interest in EVs as traditional models like the Explorer and Expedition also saw sales declines.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Even a member of the moribund Illinois Republican Party — Peoria U.S. Rep. Darin LaHood — indicated interest. From the outside looking in, a GOP candidate would appear to be the political equivalent of a kamikaze pilot in this reflexively Democratic state. Perhaps that’s why another Republican, former state Rep. Tom Demmer, issued a statement that parodied candidates’ expressions of interest. “Following today’s announcement from Sen. Durbin, I’m preparing to have conversations to consider the potential formation of a tentative exploratory committee to look in to the possibility of floating my candidacy. I hope to have potential decisions narrowed down sometime within the next 12-24 months. Get ready to stay tuned,” Demmer tweeted.)
STARVED ROCK MEDIA
— Pritzker has been contacted by the U.S. Department of Labor to remind him that unemployment benefits are not a handout for those in the country illegally. The letter was sent to all 50 governors in the U.S. Citing the executive order “Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Open Borders,” the letter said it is critical that officials ensure American taxpayer dollars do not go toward encouraging or rewarding illegal immigration to the United States.

— Trump’s mass firing of probationary employees was illegal because it was not performance-based. I should write about how my Democrat superiors in the federal government used the subjectivity in their performance appraisal systems to get rid of me. I would focus on my Democrat GAO superiors. They used that subjectivity a) to force me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980, b) to delay my promotions and to never promote me beyond GS-13, c) to give me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals, d) to always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, and e) to force me to retiree when I was 49 years old in 1997. The following frustrated their painting me as being a poor performer: a) my earning an MBA in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my earning a master’s degree in accounting 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 four more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and g) my earning a master’s degree in finance in 1997. – Dave Diersen

— Spectacle of arresting Wisconsin judge is important: A message has to be sent. My Democrat superiors used me to send strong messages. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, and forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors never promoted me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974. My Democrat Firestone Store boss rudely fired me when told him that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How have your critic/opponents used you to send messages? Leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) rudely terminated my membership on the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024. Republican leaders of Wheaton rudely ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. Leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. Republican leaders rudely ended my chairmanship of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois in 2012 and my membership on the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee in 2007. They almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter in 2006. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Have your critics/opponent taken adverse actions against you, and if so, why? My critics/opponents have taken many big adverse actions against me a) because they destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money, b) because they are Democrats or RINOs, and/or c) because I have sued them. I should write about my critics/opponents. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopilinois.com
— What have your critics/opponents used against you the most? My critics/opponents have used against me the most a) my fighting Democrat promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, 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, b) my having been a federal employee for almost 30 years and especially my having been an IRS employee for almost 9 years and my having been a federal retiree for almost 28 years, c) my demographics and especially my being a draft avoider, Protestant, and German American, and/or d) my having sued them. But of course, my critics/opponents use pretexts. I should write about my critics/opponents. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What is your position on equal outcome? My critics/opponents promote equal outcome, that is, according to them, no matter what your demographics are, you should be as successful at what you do as those who do not share your demographics, and if you don’t, it is because of discrimination. According to my critics/opponents, if minorities and/or females are less successful doing something than Whites and/or men are, it is because Whites and/or men discriminated against them. I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. Few of those who took those examinations were minorities and/or women. Even fewer passwd the examinations on their first attempt. According to my critics/opponents, I passed the examinations because I benefitted from discrimination against minorities and against women. But in my defense, 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 and died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What should you tell your children about up-or-out? If your children are White and/or male, you should tell them that Democrats and RINOs will use up-or-out to get rid of them if they are not making at least $100,000 by age 25, $200,000/year by age 30, $300,000 by age 35, $400,000 by age 40, etc. Because of that, unless your children become Democrats, they should do everything that they can to get good grades, to get the best ACT/SAT score that they can, to get accepted by the best college that they can, and to pick the right major. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors used up-or-out to get rid of me. The Democrats who run the federal government use up-or-out to get rid of their employees who are not Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran and who they do not promote to GS-13 ($117,807) by age 25, GS-14 ($139,211) by age 30, GS-15 ($163,749) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($195,200) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. My Democrat IRS superiors got rid of me because I am not a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran and because I did not make GS-12 ($99,069) until I was 25 and I did not make GS-13 until I was 38. They did that notwithstanding my earning an MBA in business when I was 27, my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, my earning a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA when I was 32, my earning four more job-related professional certifications when I was 41, 45, 47, and 48, and my earning a master’s degree in finance when I was 48. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— According to my critics/opponents, low-level federal jobs should be Black jobs. According to my critics/opponents, a) the Post Office should hired a Black instead of me in 1966 when I was 18, b) IRS should have hired a Black instead of me in 1971 and promoted Blacks instead of me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and c) GAO should have hired a Black instead of me in 1980 and promoted a Black instead of me in 1986. My critics/opponents are overjoyed that my Democrat superiors took so many adverse actions against me and especially that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. – Dave Diersen

According to my critics/opponents, federal employees are grossly overpaid, that is, GAO, IRS, and the Post Office grossly overpaid me. In today’s dollars, my federal salary increased from $19.37/hour to $153,151/year. In my defense, during that time, a) I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree and three job-related master’s degrees, b) I earned six job-related professional certifications, and c) I earned a job-related professional license.

— State treasurer offers no-cosigner loans to Illinois students trying to pay for college. The Funding U Illinois No-Cosigner Loan program is open to Illinois residents attending public or private colleges and universities. The fixed annual percentage rate ranges from 7.99% to 9.49%, and the program won’t take a student’s credit score into account. If I had not had to work my way through college, my GPA word have been higher. Instead of studying, I spent far too many hours washing dishes and delivering mail.

— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Car condo project pitched for Lake Zurich would include clubhouse, luxury car dealership. I should write about Iron Gate Motor Condos in Naperville and its unit owners. I have attended many events there since its opening. I bought a small unit there in 2020. I sold it and bought a bigger unit in 2023. I sold it and bought a bigger unit this year. If you are interested in muscle cars, especially Corvettes, Chargers, Mustangs, and Thunderbirds, please let me know.
https://www.dailyherald.com/20250425/business/car-condo-project-pitched-for-lake-zurich-would-include-clubhouse-luxury-car-dealership/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The developer of the Sanctuary of Lake Zurich residential community wants to build a different kind of condo project in town. Luxury still would be the watchword but these units would be used to store classic and rare cars, some worth millions of dollars. And there is a ready market, says Romeo Kapudija. “It’s shocking to me how many rare cars are out there and how much they’re valued at but this is a very popular business model right now and type of development and they’re selling out across the country,” he explained to the Lake Zurich village board this week during a courtesy review of Luxe Corsa Car Condominiums. . .Kapudija said the market is hot for these types of developments, referencing Iron Gate in Naperville and another planned in Barrington as examples of their popularity. Iron Gate Motor Condos was among the first in Illinois to offer space exclusively for classic, collector or exotic vehicles. Ground was broken on 50 acres near Interstate 88 and Route 59 in 2014. “Proof of concept didn’t exist when I started,” said commercial builder, car enthusiast and founder Tom Burgess. “I had to go out of state and bring in people who could explain it” to city officials. Popularity fueled expansion to include 40,000 square feet of auto-related retail. “It turned into more than just the condos,” he said. “There’s a huge car community in Chicagoland. It’s deep and broad. It’s amazing.”)

— As IRS Collections Rise, Clear Start Tax Urges Taxpayers to Take Advantage of the Fresh Start Initiative. I worked for IRS’s Collection Division 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. I should write about my critics/opponents who have used that against me the most. In my defense, I would not have become an IRS employee a) if Oldsmobile had not offered me a job in 1971, b) if my Firestone Store boss had not rudely fired me because I accepted that offer, c) if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn its job offer saying it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint, and d) if I didn’t have to have a job.

(COMMENT: With IRS Enforcement Increasing in 2025, Clear Start Tax Reminds Americans They Still Have Time to Resolve Back Taxes Through Relief Programs. As the IRS steps up its collection efforts in 2024, more Americans are receiving notices, facing wage garnishments, or dealing with tax liens. In response, Clear Start Tax is urging taxpayers with unresolved IRS debt to act quickly and explore relief options under the IRS Fresh Start Initiative, a program designed to help individuals and businesses resolve back taxes affordably. The IRS recently announced renewed funding and a more aggressive stance on collections, which means taxpayers who have ignored or delayed addressing their debt could face heavier enforcement actions in the months ahead. The Urgency of Exploring Debt Resolution Programs As IRS collection efforts intensify, it’s critical for taxpayers with unresolved debt to act before enforcement escalates. The IRS Fresh Start Initiative offers structured programs designed to ease that burden, including Offer in Compromise, Installment Agreements, and Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status. These options can reduce penalties, halt wage garnishments or levies, and in many cases, allow taxpayers to resolve their debt for significantly less than the full amount owed.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Donald Trump signed a groundbreaking executive order Thursday eliminating the use of disparate impact theory by the feds. The order “restores the true promise of the Civil Rights Movement—a system that does not differentiate between Americans based on race and where success is determined by individual merit, free from discriminatory practices that prioritize group outcomes over personal achievement.” Disparate impact theory says that any disparity must be the result of discrimination, bigotry, and racism of some kind or another. So for example, if more white people than non-white people pass a firefighter’s exam, then it must be because of racism. Or if more non-white people than white people are pulled over for speeding, that too must be the result of racism and bigotry.)

— Probationary employees face stricter review process under new executive order. If my Democrat GAO superiors could have used probationary procedures to get rid of me, they would have. My doing the following after I transferred from IRS to GAO in early 1980 frustrated their efforts to get rid of me. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981.
https://federalnewsnetwork.com/workforce/2025/04/probationary-employees-face-stricter-review-process-under-new-executive-order/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Probationary employees will now have an additional hurdle to clear before they can solidify their federal employment, according to an executive order President Donald Trump signed Thursday evening. Trump’s new order calls for the creation of “Civil Service Rule XI,” which will require agencies to review and actively sign off on probationary workers’ continued employment before they can be moved out of a probationary period. Federal employees are put into probationary periods when they first enter the civil service, or when they begin a new position, for example after getting a promotion. Once a probationary period ends — usually after one or two years of federal service — employees will automatically transition out of probationary status. “Instead of these employees becoming tenured civil servants by default, Rule XI requires agencies to affirmatively certify that finalizing their appointment after their probationary or trial period concludes advances the public interest,” the White House wrote Thursday in a fact sheet detailing the intentions of the executive order. Under current federal regulations, agencies can only remove probationary employees for issues with performance or conduct. Those rules around probationary periods spurred litigation involving the recent mass terminations of tens of thousands of probationary employees. Earlier this month, the Supreme Court blocked an order for the Trump administration to reinstate the probationary employees. Trump’s new executive order, however, adds a new reason that probationary employees can be removed from their jobs. Under the new “Civil Service Rule XI,” agencies can also determine whether a probationary employee should remain in their job based on agency needs and the interest of the public. “It alters the reason for letting a probationer go to include the generic needs and interests of the agency, as opposed to the individual’s performance or conduct,” Debra D’Agostino, an attorney and partner at Federal Practice Group, said in an interview. “It adds this generic reason where the agency can decide that it’s not in the needs or interest of the agency to keep this person.” “Usually, if someone’s not going to satisfy their probation, it’s going to be because of performance or conduct,” Kevin Owen, a partner at Gilbert Employment Law, added. “If the administration is going to start interjecting some sort of ideological component, we’re going to start again sliding into some level of a spoils system here.”)

WHITE HOUSE
— STRENGTHENING PROBATIONARY PERIODS IN THE FEDERAL SERVICE I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1980. Because my Democrat GAO superiors soon concluded that I would never become a Democrat, they tried to use probationary procedures to get rid of me. But I had already served my probationary period while I had worked for IRS. They tried to get rid of me because I was a Republican even though I had earned an MBA in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/04/strengthening-probationary-periods-in-the-federal-service/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: GAO has documented, however, that agencies have not been using probationary and trial periods as effectively as they could to remove appointees whose continued employment is not in the public interest. As a result of this failure to remove poor performers, agencies have often retained and given tenure to underperforming employees who should have been screened out during their probationary period.)

AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE
— Trump Issues Order Eliminating Use of Disparate-Impact Liability. The order follows a ban on government affirmative action. How have Democrats used disparate-impact against you? According to Democrats, a test is discriminatory if Whites and men do better on it than Blacks, Hispanics, and females do. Because Whites and men do better on the CPA examination than Blacks, Hispanics, and females, my Democrat and GAO superiors used disparate-impact to stop requiring passing the CPA examination to get hired and promoted. That rendered worthless my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30 years old in 1979. To hire and promote Democrats who were Black, Hispanic, and female, they also stopped requiring other qualifications. That rendered worthless my earning an MBA in business when I was 27, my earning a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA when I was 32, my earning four more job-related professional certifications when I was 41, 45, 47, and 48, and my earning a master’s degree in finance when I was 48. I should write about the aforesaid. It is called race and gender based preference giving, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

— Trump says “”We don’t really want Canada to make cars for us, to put it bluntly. We want to make our own cars.” What is Trump’s position on my buying a 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T Plus that was made in Canada?
https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/world/trump-now-says-he-doesn-t-want-canadian-cars-how-his-anti-canada-rhetoric-is-boosting-mark-carney-s-chances-ahead-of-the-vote/ar-AA1DvJPU
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Trump said on Wednesday he doesn’t want Canadian cars and claimed Canada would “cease to exist” without the United States — remarks that extend his sharp criticism of the country just days before Canadians head to the polls on Monday. “We don’t really want Canada to make cars for us, to put it bluntly. We want to make our own cars,” Trump said. Trump also suggested that he might increase import taxes on cars from Canada. “So when I put tariffs on Canada, they’re paying 25%, but that could go up in terms of cars. When we put tariffs on, all we’re doing is we’re saying, ‘We don’t want your cars, in all due respect.”)

GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized, it would not have been able to take the adverse actions against me that it did.

WASHINGTON POST
— Trump orders changes to civil rights rules. According to Democrats, a test is discriminatory if Whites and men do better on it than Blacks, Hispanics, and women. Because Whites and men do better on the CPA examination than Blacks, Hispanics, and women, my Democrat and GAO superiors stopped requiring passing the CPA examination to get hired and promoted. That rendered worthless my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30 years old in 1979.

Reforms could have included a) requiring that at least one-third of GAO employees at each grade level be Republican and b) requiring that all requests for GAO to do work be bipartisan.

The agency shrank from more than 6,000 employees to less than 3,000 employees. If Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it, there would be no need for DOGE.

— The Trump administration is resuming collections from student loan borrowers in default. If you had to work your way through college, how would your life have been different if you had not had to do that? My high school, undergraduate, and graduate GPAs would have been higher. Instead of studying, I spent far too many hours washing dishes while I was a Crete-Monee student 1964-1966. My ACT score was only 24. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. Instead of studying, I spent far too many hours a) delivering mail while I was a UIC and NIU student 1966-1969, b) selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances while I was a UIC student in 1971, c) pumping gasoline while I was a Loyola student in 1972, d) collecting delinquent taxes while I was a Loyola and DePaul student 1972-1980, and e) auditing federal agencies while I was a DePaul student in 1980 and an IIT student 1992-1997. Further, my 1979 CPA examination scores would have been higher if I had studied instead of collected delinquent federal taxes. Further, my 1981 Certified Internal Auditor examination scores would have been higher if I had studied instead of audited federal agencies. – Dave Diersen

— If you could do it over again, would you have had the same college major? I would have majored in accounting instead of management. I did not take and pass the CPA examination on my first attempt until I was 30 years old in 1979. By then, the accounting profession considered me to be far too old to have a successful career in accounting. The profession would not have done that if I had been a minority, female, and/or veteran. It is called reverse discrimination and age discrimination. – Dave Diersen
