CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Don’t lower the bar for Illinois students. All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government, they lowered the bar to hire, retain, and promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless my job-related bachelor’s degree, three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and professional license.

— The Democrat Party has decided that to win elections, it will ever-increasingly promote more 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, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. Further, the Democrat Party has decided that to win elections, it will ever-increasingly replace those in America who are conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time with those who are liberal, Democrat, citizen of a foreign country, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, unmarried, poor, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time.

— Overpaid? Did you read Money Magazine ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_(financial_website) )? If you read its February 1978 4-page article on me  ( https://gopillinois.com/documents/ ), you would have concluded that the magazine did not pick me for the article to give me financial advice, but a) to foist negative government employee stereotypes on me, b) to paint me as being grossly overpaid, and c) to get IRS to disallow my education deductions. The article caused me many big problems, not the least of which was IRS’s disallowing my education deductions. Ever since the article was published, my critics/opponents have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. In February of 1978, I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years. I had been promoted in 1972, 1973, and 1974. In today’s dollars, my salary was $108,978/year. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I was taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul. I owned a one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building. I had rented out a town home in University Park since 1976 that I had bought new in 1972. I owned a 1972 Corvette that I bought new in 1971. My daily driver was a 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air.

— Chicago Golf Club in Wheaton is the best golf course Illinois has to offer, according to a new ranking developed by golfers themselves. The Chicago Golf Club is south and east of my precinct. Golf Lane and Golf Circle are in my precinct.
https://patch.com/illinois/wheaton/best-golf-course-il-golf-digest-says
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Golf Digest deploys 1,700 professionally trained low-handicap golfers to continually assess the golf courses. The rankings are based on more than 80,000 evaluations over 10 years looking at criteria such as short options, challenge, design variety, conditioning, aesthetics, and character. Established in 1892, Chicago Golf Club stands out as one of five golf clubs that founded the United States Golf Association in 1894, its website states. Its original location at Belmont Golf Club in Downers Grove made history in 1893 as the first 18-hole golf course in the United States. In 1894, the club moved to its current home in Wheaton on Warrenville Road. Chicago Golf Club was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2020. There are plenty of other courses in Illinois that prioritize the aesthetics of their fairways and greens and test the golfers who play on them with a variety of challenges. . .Wheaton’s Cantigny Golf came in at #35 on Golf Digest’s new list.)

To fight that, I earned an MBA in 1976. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I transferred to GAO in 1980. I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor Examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I earned more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. I earned a master’s degree in finance in 1997. I should write a book about age discrimination.

While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, they always had quotas, goals, and targets for LGBTQers, but they were unofficial. They always met those quotas, goals, and targets. Of course, that meant getting rid of their employees like me who did not promote LGBTQ.

— Legalized discrimination. In Diersen v. GAO, the Democrats who ran GAO argued that they treated me just like Congress wanted them to treat me, that is, to waste my career and to get rid of me because I was a Republican a) who objected to their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination and b) who was an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. I should write about that in light of recent developments.

http://www.gopillinois.com
— According to Trump’s critics/opponents, Trump is motivated by revenge. GAO audits IRS. According to my critics/opponents, revenge motivated me to  transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 and to ask to be assigned to audits of IRS. They stressed the adverse actions that IRS had taken against me including disallowing my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowing my education expenses in 1978, and never promoting me beyond GS-12. In my defense, I stressed that the many codes of conduct that I was under prohibited that. I became a CPA in 1979, Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, licensed CPA in 1981, and a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. Their revenge argument was a pretext. The real reason was that the Democrats who run IRS and GAO do not want Republicans to audit IRS. – Dave Diersen

More recently, my critics/opponents had their operatives and their dupes a) end my membership on the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024 and b) end my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. – Dave Diersen

— Did you read Money Magazine ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_(financial_website) )? If you read its February 1978 4-page article on me  ( https://gopillinois.com/documents/ ), you would have concluded that the magazine did not pick me for the article to give me financial advice, but a) to foist negative government employee stereotypes on me, b) to paint me as being grossly overpaid, and c) to get IRS to disallow my education deductions. The article caused me many big problems, not the least of which was IRS’s disallowing my education deductions. Ever since the article was published, my critics/opponents have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years. I had been promoted in 1972, 1973, and 1974. In today’s dollars, my salary was $108,978/year. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I was taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul. I owned a one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building. I rented out a town home in University Park since 1976 that I had bought new in 1972. I owned a 1972 Corvette that I bought new in 1971. My daily driver was a 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air. – Dave Diersen

I became a CPA in 1979, Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, licensed CPA in 1981, and a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. Their revenge argument was a pretext. The real reason was that the Democrats who run IRS and GAO do not want Republicans to audit IRS.

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.

— How has Gingrich impacted you? I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997. What if Gingrich had reformed GAO instead of gutting it? 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

I got lots of legal training and experience while I 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, and for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $117,807-$153,151/year.

All my coworkers who they promoted over me were Democrats a) who had less work experience than I had, less education than I had, no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or no professional license like the one I had and/or b) were younger than me, minority, and/or female. – Dave Diersen

The more of the following that you are, the more points that they give you: liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German America, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. The more of the following that you do, the more points that they give you: glorify and praise them, pander to them, serve as one of their operatives or dupes, cover up their wrongdoing, and/or give them money. Of course, Democrat and RINO leaders give me no points. I should write about Democrat and RINO leaders in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. – Dave Diersen

— Important Changes to Proposed Benefits Cuts in House-Passed Spending Bill. Trump wants to cut Civil Service protections. Were it not for Civil Service protections, the Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 a) would not have hired me, b) would have done more to waste my career and to get rid of me, c) would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, 1974, or 1986, d) would have taken even more/bigger adverse actions against me, and e) would have gotten rid of me sooner than they did. They hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. My qualifications include a) passing the postal employment test and earning a high school diploma in 1966, b) passing the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, c) earning a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, d) earning job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and e) earning a job-related professional license in 1981.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Election for At-Will Employment  The provision for new hires to elect at-will employment remains in the legislation as well. Newly hired federal employees could opt to become at-will employees in exchange for a lower contribution rate to FERS (the standard 4.4%). This would be an irrevocable decision per the language of the legislation as currently written. However, if employees were to choose to keep their Civil Service protections, they would pay an additional 5% contribution rate to FERS (9.4% total for most federal employees). Federal employees who opt to become at-will employees could face adverse actions, including removal, without notice or the right to appeal the action. Per the language of the bill as currently written, they “may be subject to an adverse action up to and including removal, without notice or right to appeal, by the head of the agency at which the individual is employed for good cause, bad cause, or no cause at all.”)

MSNBC
— As Musk exits with a whimper, Trump makes mockery of fighting government waste. GAO is supposed to fight government waste, but the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997 wasted me and my career big time. GAO audits IRS. 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. They succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They also wasted what I had learned a) earning master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance and b) passing the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. I should write about that.

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.

For the sprint-drag-carry exercise, they must perform 5 x 50-meter shuttles as quickly as possible with a 2 x 40-pound kettlebell and a 90-pound sled. Soldiers must then hold the plank position for as long as possible to assess muscular endurance, before finishing off with a two-mile run on a “generally flat outdoor course.”)

NEWSWEEK
— College Graduates Are Feeling Pessimistic About the Job Market. What frustrated your job search? In 1970, potential employers viewed me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got and it was for a job that did not really require a college degree.

POLITICO
— GOP declares war on GAO. Republicans are undermining the Government Accountability Office, the century-old agency that roots out waste, fraud and abuse. Who do you know who works for GAO or has worked for GAO? I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $117,807-$153,151/year.
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/27/gop-declares-war-on-gao-00369762
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The independent Government Accountability Office has served Congress as the nation’s chief investigator of wrongdoing at federal agencies for more than a century. Now it’s under assault. The typically uncontroversial, under-the-radar agency is fighting to retain power against attempts by Republicans in the Trump administration and on Capitol Hill to undercut its legal conclusions and independence — an onslaught that has been fast and furious. . .Vought also claimed that GAO had played “a partisan role” in the “impeachment hoax” of Donald Trump’s first presidency, referencing the House’s vote in 2019 to remove the president ahead of GAO’s conclusion that the administration violated the same “impoundment” law by withholding aid to Ukraine. Sen. Mike Lee piled on a day later. “GAO has lost credibility as an independent body,” the Utah Republican wrote on social media, reacting to Vought’s criticism. Taken together, these events show the extent to which Republicans are increasingly willing to denigrate an agency that has frequently validated their policies and positions, while sometimes delivering findings conservatives don’t like. And this political posture could upend the relationship members of both parties have had with GAO for decades. . .And while GAO is a legislative branch agency, Trump has the ability to dismiss its leader, akin to his firing of Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden. GAO spokesperson Jasmine Berry Franklin said in a statement that agency officials “stand behind the quality of our work.” The watchdog’s mission is to deliver “non-partisan, fact-based information to Congress, to help it carry out its constitutional legislative, appropriations, and oversight functions and protect the power of the purse,” she continued. “Our legal decisions do not take a position on the policy goals of a program, they only examine the procedural issues and compliance with the law.” At a recent congressional hearing, Dodaro also stressed that GAO doesn’t want to be in the partisan crosshairs, has no interest in having political sway and is committed to its mandate to respond to requests from lawmakers with the facts. “We’re just responding to help Congress,” Dodaro said. “We’re not trying to influence things one way or the other. We’re nonpartisan. We’re asked a question; we give an answer. It doesn’t matter who it is.”)

TIME
— How Grads Can Futureproof Themselves As Career Ladders Weaken. Timing is everything. My not majoring in accounting at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970 was a very big career mistake. I erroneously though that I could not pass the CPA examination. I did not start taking graduate accounting courses until I was 27. I did not take and pass the CPA examination on my first attempt until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt until I was 32. I did not become a licensed CPA until I was 32. By then, the accounting profession saw me as being far too old to have a successful career in accounting. The accounting profession would not have done that if I had been a minority, female, or veteran.
https://time.com/charter/7286901/how-grads-can-futureproof-themselves-as-career-ladders-weaken/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the “bottom rung of the career ladder breaking,” according to Aneesh Raman, chief economic opportunity officer at LinkedIn, new graduates and other workers early in their careers face less certain paths for getting professional toeholds and experience that can serve them over their lifetimes. That also ups the stakes for managers and mentors to help young workers identify and cultivate the skills that will best serve them.)

I got those bad jobs because my employers could not find a Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take them.
