— Chicago minimum wage set to increase July 1. Did you ever work for the minimum wage? I did 1964-1966 washing dishes in Chicago Heights while I was a junior and a senior at Crete-Monee High School. With the money that I earned, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, a poor man’s GTO, in May of 1966, and I used it to get to/from my parents’ home in Crete and summer jobs and then classes at UIC and my part-time Park Forest Post Office job. When you were in high school, did your classmates work part-time during the school year and/or full-time during the summers in between like I did? Few of my high school classmates did. There were few good jobs available. I worked far too many hours washing dishes instead of studying. Nevertheless, I took college preparatory classes, I got an ACT score of 24, I got into the upper 20% of my class, and UIC accepted me.

If Democrat and RINO leaders had promoted LGBTQ back then like they do now, a) the Democrats who ran the Post Office in 1966, IRS in 1971, and GAO in 1980 would not have hired me, b) if the Post Office had hired me, it would have forced me to resign sooner than it did, c) if IRS had hired me, it would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, c) if GAO had hired me, it would not have promoted me in 1986 and would have forced me to resign in 1993 instead of 1997, d) the RINOs who have run the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) since 1999 would not have appointed me as a precinct committeeman in 1999 and they would have defeated me when I ran for precinct committeeman in 2000. If they had failed to defeat me, they never would have made me MTRO webmaster in 2000 and 2008. When I ran for MTRO Treasurer in 2004, I would have gotten zero votes instead of just 13.

GAO would have offered me a promotion instead of a pay cut to transfer from IRS in 1980. GAO would have immediately and always assigned me to audits of IRS. GAO would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service, currently $153,151/year, before I was 40 in 1988. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. All my GAO coworkers who my Democrat GAO superiors promoted over me were Democrats who a) had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had, and/or were minority, female, and/or younger than me. – Dave Diersen

— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly promote more LGBTQ. I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran. I have always opposed the promotion of LGBTQ. If Democrat and RINO leaders had promoted LGBTQ back then like they do now, a) the Democrats who ran the Post Office in 1966, IRS in 1971, and GAO in 1980 would not have hired me, b) if the Post Office had hired me, it would have forced me to resign sooner than it did, c) if IRS had hired me, it would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, c) if GAO had hired me, it would not have promoted me in 1986 and would have forced me to resign in 1993 instead of 1997, d) the RINOs who have run the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) since 1999 would not have appointed me as a precinct committeeman in 1999 and they would have defeated me when I ran for precinct committeeman in 2000. If they had failed to defeat me, they never would have made me MTRO webmaster in 2000 and 2008. When I ran for MTRO Treasurer in 2004, I would have gotten zero votes instead of just 13. Topinka dominated the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO.

They succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO.

USA TODAY
— Should you tell your employer you’re looking for a new job? My Firestone Store boss would never have hired me when I was 21 years old in 1970. I was hired by Firestone’s district office and assigned to his store. He owned the building in Chicago Heights that the store was in. He forced me to pass a 2-week probationary period in the Firestone Store in Gary, Indiana. He disapproved of my being a draft avoider, Republican, college graduate, part-time MBA student at UIC, Protestant, German American, my ancestors having been in America since 1844, and I had been a Crete resident since 1948. He was a veteran and he blamed Republicans for America losing the Vietnam War. My on-the-job training included lots of pumping gasoline, mounting and balancing tires, changing oil and filters, changing batteries, and delivering major appliances. I made the best of it, but I did accept a job offer from Oldsmobile in early 1971. He immediately rudely fired me when I told him that I had accepted that offer after he had directed me while the store was open to use a ladder, bucket, water, and SOS pads to clean the whitewalls on moldy tires that had been hanging on store’s showroom walls for many years.

https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/05/18/hands-across-chicagoland-event-stretches-from-aurora-to-chicago-to-protest-trump-administration/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Stuebner was one of over 18,000 gathered over a 30-mile stretch across DuPage and Cook counties from Aurora to Chicago on Sunday to protest Trump administration policies, per a news release from the Hands Across Chicagoland event organized by the Democratic Party of DuPage County, Indivisible Illinois, the Illinois Federation of Teachers and other political organizations across the Chicago area. The idea was to “form a human chain of solidarity against Trump’s illegal and authoritarian actions and the GOP’s failure to defend the Constitution,” per the release. Protestors signed up in advance based on their ZIP code, and lined the sidewalk along Ogden Avenue and 26th Street, from Aurora to the Little Village neighborhood in Chicago, on Sunday afternoon. The idea arose out of past protests organized by the DuPage Democratic party, according to the group’s chair Reid McCollum. In March, the group hosted a “Tesla Takedown DuPage” protest against Elon Musk’s efforts to slash and restructure the federal government and decided they wanted to stage a protest that stretched further. Sunday’s demonstration was spurred on by the Trump administration sending individuals — like Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was wrongly deported from the United States — to detention centers, McCollum said. The protest’s goal is to reach a significant number of people passing by the protest so that the people of the U.S. won’t “just slide into authoritarianism without fighting back,” McCollum said. Amongst a few dozen protestors gathered in Lisle, several local officials offered their remarks. Standing in front of an inflatable chicken meant to be a caricature of President Trump, U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly, D-Matteson, told The Beacon-News that these kinds of demonstrations show that people are “ready to resist” the Trump administration. She described concerns about Medicaid, SNAP and tariffs as some of the everyday issues that are affecting ordinary residents’ lives.
— Democrat leaders ever-increasingly fight deportation of their illegals. To come into a country illegally is to demonstrate gross disrespect for the rule of law and for that country.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Who has had since 2015, who is having, and who will have the biggest impact on you/? For me, because I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, it is Trump. Since 2015, I have ever-increasingly included links to articles that involve Trump in my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. My critics/opponents despise/hate Trump, and according to them, my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters promote Trump. Since 2015, to punish me, my critics/opponents have had their operatives and dupes a) gerrymander my precinct in 2015, b) end my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, c) almost stop me from attending the DeSantis event in Elmhurst in 2023, and d) end my membership on the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024. My critics/opponents stress that even though I have been a member of the Milton Township Republican Organization since 1999, the organization a) has never asked me to serve as one of its officers, b) rudely fired me as its webmaster in 2004 and 2010, and c) rudely defeated my bid to serve as its treasurer in 2004. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Sooner or later, all my critics/opponents make it clear that they reject some, many, most, virtually all, if not all of the following planks in the Republican Party platform: personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving). I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those a) who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois and b) who have had their operatives and their dupes take the biggest adverse actions against me lately. – Dave Diersen

I earned three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license. My Black subordinate who my Democrat GAO superiors replaced me with in 1997 could have but did not do what I did. He could have but did not become a) a Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, b) licensed CPA in 1981, c) Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, d) Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, e) Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and f) Forensic Accountant in 1997. He could have but did not like I did earn a master’s degree in financial markets and trading at IIT in 1997. We both had the same superior since 1990. Similarly, she could have done the aforesaid but did not do the aforesaid. – Dave Diersen

— Release of an important IVF report is approaching. I should write about how my Democrat GAO superiors punished me for my wife and I giving up trying to have children without trying IVF. In 1989, they stressed that our health insurance covered IVF, threw me off audits of IRS, gave me a very bad job assignment, gave me very unfair performance expectations, gave me a very bad performance appraisal, and ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. According to them, if we had children, I would never had been able to a) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) earn a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, c) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, d) become a licensed CPA in 1981, e) earn four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and f) earn a master’s degree in finance in 1997. Further, according to them, my wife would never had been able to keep her good job or earn a bachelor’s degree in finance in 1986. My Democrat GAO superiors a) had spouses who had little or no income and b) decried the time and money needed to raise children. – Dave Diersen

FOX NEWS
— Trump says tax raises are ‘good politics,’ dismissing GOP critics. My critics/opponents have always wanted me to pay more taxes. According to them, I can and should pay more taxes a) because I avoided the Vietnam War draft, b) because I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, and c) because my wife and I gave up trying to have children. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents were wealthy and who bought them cars, paid for their colleges expenses, and got them jobs. I would focus on those who benefitted the most from Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, who benefitted the most from race and gender based preference giving.

— My critics/opponent credit meritocracy for their successes, but discredit meritocracy for everyone else’s successes. Democrat and RINO leaders, that is, liberal and moderate leaders, have always used “disparate impact” to get rid of Republicans, that is, to get rid of conservatives. Conservatives do better on tests than liberals and moderates. My critics/opponents continue to be furious 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 stress others who passed the examinations on their first attempt and got better scores than I did. Extremely few of my coworkers who my Democrat superiors in the federal promoted over me took the CPA examination, let alone passed it, let alone passed it on their first attempt. None passed the CIA examination. I should write about my coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me. They all were Democrats a) who had less work experience than I had, b) who had less education than I had, c) who had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or d) who had no professional license like the one I had. They all were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.  According to my critics/opponents, I passed the aforesaid examinations because the tests favored those who share my White male demographics. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother attended high school. – Dave Diersen

The RINOs who ran the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) in 2000 let me publish the organization’s first website and serve as its webmaster. They gambled and lost that I would cave in and become a RINO. They rudely fired me as MTRO webmaster in 2004. – Dave Diersen

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/new-pope-robert-prevost-pope-leo-xiv/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Chicago-born pope — formerly Cardinal Robert F. Prevost — is registered to vote in the Chicago suburb of New Lenox, Ill., and has a mixed voting history of participating in primaries for both parties, according to voting records shared with CBS News and data from the Illinois State Board of Elections. There is no party registration in Illinois, but to vote in a primary you have to choose a party’s ballot to vote on. Prevost has voted in more Republican primaries than Democratic, and the last primary election he voted in was the 2016 Republican presidential primary. . .He voted in the Republican primaries in 2012, 2014 & 2016, including the presidential primaries in 2012 and 2016. L2 Data records show he last voted in a Democratic primary in 2010. He had also voted in the party’s presidential primary in 2008. He has voted in at least nine general elections, including in five presidential election cycles: 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012 and 2024. There’s no record of him voting in the 2016 or 2020 general election. Records show he also voted in a “consolidated general election” in April 2001, when local Illinois offices were on the ballot.)

NEW YORK TIMES & BLOOMBERG LAW & ECONOMIST
— My critics/opponent credit meritocracy for their successes, but discredit meritocracy for everyone else’s successes. Democrat and RINO leaders, that is, liberal and moderate leaders, have always used “disparate impact” to get rid of Republicans, that is, to get rid of conservatives. Conservatives do better on tests than liberals and moderates. My critics/opponents continue to be furious 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 stress others who passed the examinations on their first attempt and got better scores than I did. Extremely few of my coworkers who my Democrat superiors in the federal promoted over me took the CPA examination, let alone passed it, let alone passed it on their first attempt. None passed the CIA examination. I should write about my coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me. They all were Democrats a) who had less work experience than I had, b) who had less education than I had, c) who had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or d) who had no professional license like the one I had. They all were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.  According to my critics/opponents, I passed the aforesaid examinations because the tests favored those who share my White male demographics. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother attended high school.

— Stellantis to Halt Windsor Charger Production for One Week. 3,800 Workers Temporarily Laid Off as Stellantis Reacts to U.S. Tariff Fallout.
https://moparinsiders.com/stellantis-to-halt-windsor-minivan-and-charger-production-for-one-week/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This is the second time in just over a month that production has been halted at the facility, which builds the Chrysler Pacifica, Chrysler Grand Caravan, Chrysler Voyager, and both the gas-powered Dodge Charger and electric Charger Daytona. Stellantis had previously shut the plant down for two weeks in April to evaluate the impact of new 25% U.S. tariffs on imported vehicles. The tariffs, introduced by the Trump administration on April 3, apply to vehicles with a significant amount of non-U.S. content. They’ve already shaken up the North American auto industry, especially for companies like Stellantis that rely on cross-border production. . .But behind the scenes, it’s clear the broader trade environment is weighing heavily. During the company’s Q1 2025 earnings call, Stellantis CFO Doug Ostermann acknowledged that the automaker is actively looking at relocating some production and supply chains to the U.S. to avoid the steep import duties. “It’s something that we’re working very hard on,” said Ostermann. “To think through how quickly can we make those changes to mitigate any tariff impacts?” Meanwhile, workers at the Windsor plant—many of whom were just called back from a two-week layoff in April—are once again facing an uncertain week ahead. With both minivan and Charger output affected, this could be a sign of bigger shifts coming for Stellantis’ North American operations.)

https://www.autoevolution.com/news/96-year-old-kept-1968-dodge-charger-in-storage-for-30-years-his-wife-hated-the-car-250906.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A senior gentleman has been keeping the Dodge Charger in a storage facility for he can’t even remember how long. The car hides under a thick layer of dust that leaves its original color to the imagination. Will it shine and drive again, or should it already be on its way to the scrap yard? The 96-year-old owner of the 57-year-old Dodge Charger is Peter. He has big plans for the car he used to drive and rock the streets with back in the day. He remembers that his wife didn’t like the car. “It was a little louder than necessary,” he recalls. He wants to restore it to its former glory. The time has come for that car to run and drive again. He can’t even remember the last time he drove it, but assumes that it has been in the storage facility for around 30 years. That’s three decades away from the sunlight and off the road. Surprisingly, the tires still hold air and a few more goodies of the era. The Fratzog logo shows up on the dashboard. It is the iconic triangle-like badge that Dodge brought back with the Charger Daytona EV.)
