— FRONT PAGE: Northwestern students boycotting antibias training. DD: I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS 1971-1980 and GAO 1980-1997. They forced all their employees, including me, to take such “training.” All that training was designed to promote more hatred against Republicans, and especially against Republicans like me who were conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/10/01/northwestern-university-students-boycott-bias-training/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Micol Bez has three weeks to make a choice. The Northwestern University graduate student has spent years studying political epistemology and abolitionism. Now, she is prepared to risk everything — her Ph.D. dissertation, her student status and her visa — in an act of protest she calls “a question of moral clarity.” Bez is part of a group of students boycotting Northwestern’s controversial antibias training video, which critics say conflates criticism of Israel with antisemitism. Those who refuse to complete the online training will be unable to enroll in fall classes, the university said, which could jeopardize their academic standing if they miss the final course registration deadline. “I’m in a profound moral crisis,” said Bez, who is a member of the student group Northwestern Graduate Workers for Palestine. Her refusal to engage in the training, which makes it “impossible to structurally critique Israel, its policies, the apartheid and the ongoing genocide,” she said, is her taking a stand against Northwestern serving “misinformation to thousands of students.”)
— What a federal government shutdown means for Illinois. . .while government offices continue to stay open for their most important operations, so-called nonessential work is suspended, paychecks are not issued and many workers are furloughed until Congress approves a new funding plan. President Donald Trump has amped up the threats this time around, saying he plans to fire employees, rather than just furlough them, a move he says will hurt Democrats. DD: I was a federal worker in Chicago in 1971 and then 1973-1997. In 1971, I was one of the last Republicans who IRS hired. In 1980, I was one of the last Republicans who GAO hired. If I was still a federal worker, to punish Trump, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates would have killed me by now, figuratively, if not literally.

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Illinois federal workers heavily stressed as government shutdown yanks paychecks. For federal workers living paycheck to paycheck, the shutdown could mean choosing between paying for groceries or prescriptions, says National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU) National President Doreen Greenwald. DD: My critics/opponents have always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. While I was a NTEU member 1971-1980, my IRS salary increased from $55,850/year to $112,280/year in today’s dollars. In my defense, during that time, I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and I almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul.

KANE COUNTY CHRONICLE

— According to state estimates, more than 153,000 federal workers in Illinois will be affected by the shutdown, with as many as 45,000 potentially furloughed. While essential services like Social Security and mail delivery will continue, other programs — including some supporting public health, housing and a veterans hotline — face disruption.

https://www.shawlocal.com/kendall-county-now/2025/09/27/a-revival-born-charlie-kirk-memorial-in-yorkville-darren-bailey-campaigns-for-governor/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With antisniper security on rooftops in downtown Yorkville for the Sept. 27 Charlie Kirk memorial, one speaker remarked it’s sad this is the current state of American political discourse. Organized by Kendall Action, a conservative fundraising PAC, the event was part sermon, “a revival born in Charlie Kirk’s name,” part rally, with Darren Bailey campaigning as a Republican candidate for governor. A unifying message shared by the crowd was that the Sept. 10 killing of Kirk by a sniper’s bullet took something personal away from each of them, something that touches their faith. “When we exchange ideas as a society, we win,” State Rep. Jed Davis, R-Newark, said to the crowd. “When you start to silence that opportunity, that God-given right the founders of this nation wrote into the Constitution, that we have the right to free speech, the right to have free and open dialogue, when that is silenced, the people lose.” Kicking off his election tour, Bailey, a former Republican state senator, called Kirk’s killing a tragic loss of “a great American treasure.” He brought up Abraham Lincoln’s prescient warning. “He warned that if we as America falter and lose our freedom, it won’t happen from outside our borders, but it will happen from within,” Bailey said during the rally. “We’ve got a governor who’s using all of this as rhetoric against us to make life more unsafe for us.” In an interview, Bailey was asked what can be done to tone down political violence. “We need to focus on the people that we’re electing, because we have to bring unity to this nation,” Bailey said. “We look for a stronger and different candidate to take that position, a leader who’s bold and courageous and desires unity instead of division.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A GOP chairman was slammed as a “dork *** loser” after he criticized a gruesome political stunt that occurred at “Riot Fest” in Chicago. DuPage County, Illinois GOP Chairman Kevin Coyne went viral on Monday after criticizing a gruesome political stunt at “Riot Fest” in a now-deleted post to X. Riot Fest ’25 occurred on September 19 through September 21 at Douglass Park in the City of Chicago. According to The New York Post, during a performance by GWAR, a metal band that was first formed back in 1984, band members performed a mock beheading of Elon Musk, as well as a mock killing of President Donald J. Trump. While the band is known for its grotesque stunts, several social media users voiced criticism due to the political environment in the United States following the assassination of conversative activist Charlie Kirk. “That’s not edgy, it’s grotesque and reckless and normalizes violence against a real person. This is not okay. Riot Fest and GWAR crossed a major line,” a social media user wrote, per The Post. Screenshots of the now-deleted post appear to show that Coyne, who was in attendance at Riot Fest, wrote the following in reaction to GWAR’s stunt: “Riot Fest, it’s always so …. Interesting. Could’ve done without all the politics from the stage but it was fun nonetheless. Apparently we can’t even go to concerts now without the political divide being tossed in our faces. We’ll still go back but it was obnoxious.” The screenshot appears to show that Coyne’s post was seen more than 2.5 million times before being deleted. The message is followed by an @ to an apparent parody Riot Fest account, which boasts more than 95,000 followers. The Riot Fest parody account responded to Coyne’s criticism, writing the following, according to a screenshot: “Shut the (expletive) up you dork (expletive) loser. Seriously some of the softest dumbest people on the internet.” After being accused of “normalizing violence,” a GWAR representative issued the following statement to the publication: “Normalizing violence? Humans don’t need GWAR for that. There is nothing normal about the Looney Toon violence acted out on a GWAR stage. GWAR is absurdist spectacle. GWAR is to violence what the New York Post is to journalism. Ridiculous.” The Anonymous X account also chimed in on the discussion, writing the following: ““(Expletive) Elon Musk. Call the manager you (expletive) loser. It’s like you never heard of GWAR before you (expletive) p–y,” Riot Fest is a three-day festival that was first held in 2005, and is one of the largest independently-owned music festivals in the United States.)

https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/675484139-protesters-removed-by-police-after-disrupting-charlie-kirk-prayer-rally-in-wheaton
https://x.com/DuPageCountyGOP/status/1972019256188641431
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Police removed a small group of protesters Sunday night who disrupted a prayer rally in Wheaton honoring the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The event drew about 1,500 attendees and was organized by local church leaders and Decision Point USA. The prayer rally took place under the French Market Pavilion in downtown Wheaton. Organizers said the event was held to pray for revival in the city, schools, churches, and the nation. “In this moment of grief and urgency, we believe God is our only hope,” a flyer from Decision Point USA said. “Together, we will lift our voices and ask Him to raise up courageous leaders, heal our land and pour out His Spirit on the next generation.” The meeting was organized by leaders from four churches in the Wheaton area who said they believe this time is an opportunity for community revival. The rally, structured around Christian worship and calls for unity, was briefly disrupted when several protesters, some masked and carrying signs, began shouting during a moment of prayer. “Bruha started by the few but noisy and disrespectful protestors during the prayer at the Wheaton Charlie Kirk Memorial tonight,” user Babette Holder said in a Facebook post. Wheaton police responded and escorted the protesters from the area. The rally continued as planned, ending with hymns “I Have Decided to Follow Jesus” and “In Christ Alone.” Photos from the event showed protesters holding signs with messages such as “Honoring Charlie Kirk = Honoring Racism, Bigotry, Misogyny” and “I do not support what happened to Charlie but Charlie supported what happened to Charlie.” One protester wore a shirt with “Palestine” printed on it, while another’s shirt displayed a profanity directed at President Donald Trump and his supporters. . .According to reports, the protesters were allegedly affiliated with Mutual Aid Dawning (MAD), a Glen Ellyn-based group formed during the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests in Chicago. Those protests involved widespread property damage and arrests. MAD’s website describes the group as “intergenerational, largely non-religious and queer with sexualities and genders across the spectrum.” The group identifies with anti-capitalist and anti-colonial ideologies. The website includes political education materials referencing historical figures, including Mao Zedong. Critics have noted Mao’s legacy includes responsibility for millions of deaths and ongoing repression in China. MAD describes the suburban communities where it organizes as “highly resourced yet highly unengaged,” and states its goal is to challenge perceived complicity in systems of oppression. Though the protesters were few in number, their presence drew concern among attendees and organizers, who said the disruption highlighted a broader cultural and political divide. Breakthrough Ideas, an organization led by former state representative Jeanne Ives, responded to the event by calling for “more speech, not less,” and said Kirk’s vision based on constitutional and biblical principles must be defended publicly. “They’re hoping (Kirk’s) murder isn’t a real Turning Point in America,” the group said in a newsletter. “They hope people don’t start to evaluate the culture and realize that the Left has been feeding children, young adults, and even boomers progressive nonsense that debases society and breaks the social and constitutional contract that citizens in a free society should have with each other.”)

I was all of the aforesaid plus they had only promoted me to GS-13 even though I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years, I had thee job-related master’s degrees (business, accounting, and finance), I had six job-related professional certifications (accounting, fraud examination, government financial management, financial services auditing, and forensic accounting), and I had a job-related professional license (CPA).

CHICAGO TRIBUNE (FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD IN NAPERVILLE SUN)
— Naperville councilman Josh McBroom wants Naper Pride Fest funding ended in wake of Kirk posts. TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) never sought government funding or got government funding. I served as the TAPROOT chairman 2005-2012 and as an ICRC officer 2003-2007.  Naper Pride promotes liberal principles. TAPROOT and ICRC promoted conservative principles.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/20/naperville-councilman-mcbroom-pride-funding-kirk-seca/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Naperville City Councilman Josh McBroom is demanding LGBTQ+-focused Naper Pride apologize for recent “political” social media posts or he will vote against future city funding for the nonprofit. . .In the wake of his death, Naper Pride shared a Facebook post on Sept. 15 that featured a comment from the Rev. Howard John-Wesley, pastor of Alfred Street Baptist Church in Alexandria, Virginia, in which he said: “There is nowhere in the Bible where we are taught to honor evil and how you die does not redeem how you lived. You don’t become a hero in death when you are a weapon of the enemy in life.” In response to that message, McBroom put up his own Facebook post in which he discussed funding provided to organizations through Naperville’s Special Events & Community Arts (SECA) Commission and stated that groups that engage in political advocacy “should not be subsidized with tax dollars.” According to city documents, the group this year was allocated $5,219 for city services and $21,100 to help cover the cost of operations for Pride Fest, which was held Sept. 13 at Naper Settlement. Naper Pride, in its response to McBroom’s post, posted a follow-up statement in which they said they “do not advocate for violence against anyone” and that everyone “has the right to free speech, but nobody has the right to force anyone else to listen.” The organization also shut down the comments section on its post after receiving a flurry of negative messages. They also noted that Kirk, whose name was later removed from the post, had “advocated for violence against LGBTQ individuals,” including once saying he believed gay people be stoned to death, a point that was widely circulated but has since been clarified. “You’d have to (be) completely tone deaf to not understand that there would be complex feelings around this, everyone is different,” the message said. At Tuesday’s city council meeting, McBroom — former vice president of the anti-LGBTQ+ group Awake Illinois — doubled-down on his belief that Naper Pride took a political stance and should not receive future city funding without an apology or retraction. He posted a clip of his comments from the city council meeting on social media Wednesday: “The posts they put out there suggested that Charlie Kirk was evil, that his followers were the enemy,” McBroom said. “They continued and made a false claim that Charlie Kirk and by extension his followers advocated the stoning or murdering of LGBTQ communities.” McBroom also emphasized in his Wednesday post that while Naper Pride’s comments may fall under protected speech, he believes that protection does not “override responsibility” when it comes to receiving city funds. On Friday, in another social media post, he further stressed it was not a freedom of speech issue. “While I believe this rhetoric is dangerously reckless, particularly to our community youth who were Charlie fans, I still defend their right to say it,” McBroom wrote. “But when they are being funded with OUR money, I believe the tax payers have a right to demand a retraction and apology or end this subsidy entirely.” However, there is nothing in rules governing the awarding of SECA money that states that funding recipients must refrain from political advocacy or making political statements. Despite McBroom’s statement that freedom of speech does not factor into his position, it could easily be seen as such, said Ed Yohnka, a spokesman for the American Civil Liberties Union. “What we’re seeing right now and what’s really precarious is we’re seeing people attempting to use the power of the government to punish people for their speech, and oft times that attempted punishment is not really reflective of the speech itself but is, in fact, simply reflective of a political view of some government official,” Yohnka said. “To be sure, the council member can vote or not vote,” Yohnka said. “To condition it on them changing their speech is, in some ways, the thing that really is antithetical to our constitutional system.” The freedom of speech issue came into the forefront this past week with the announcement that the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” late night TV show was being put on indefinite hiatus following a joke the comedian made in reference to Kirk and President Trump’s MAGA followers. The move by ABC had the backing of FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, who said other such actions may follow. When interviewed on Friday, McBroom said Naper Pride is free to say whatever its wants, but that doesn’t mean the city has to support them financially. He’d like to see the city reexamine its rules for SECA funding, he said. “As far as like a chilling effect on individuals and how they act in the community, maybe that’s not a bad thing,” McBroom said. “If we’re going to continue giving out all these city grants, I think these organizations need to be very careful that they don’t get political and they don’t engage in divisive type of rhetoric and they stay out of the local political process.” A representative from Naper Pride reiterated to the Naperville Sun that its posts were not made with an intent to be divisive or to advocate for violence but to address the situation from the perspective of the LGBTQ+ community. “So many people objecting to the statement are taking it as we are calling them the enemy,” the representative said. “We’re not pointing a finger at anybody, not Mr. Kirk’ followers, not anybody. It’s just a statement of emotion made by that pastor in the moment and it sums up how many people feel when you have an individual that’s so polarizing, as Mr. Kirk was.”)

Your reaction to the Kirk assignation defines not only what you think of conservatives, it defines who you really are.

What do you say to people who paint themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican and who hint/imply/argue/shout that Kirk brought in on himself by being too conservative? I should write about the aforesaid people. 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.

— If I was still the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, the organization would host an event honoring Kirk. I would invite all those who knew Kirk to speak at that event. If I was still an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member, I would urge that organization to host a similar event. While I did not know Kirk, I know/knew many who knew Kirk  Anti-conservatives would not have been able to destroy TAPROOT in 2012 if I had been able to recruit a conservative slate of officers to run with me, but my fellow conservatives declined. Anti-conservatives would not have been able to destroy ICRC in 2007 if more ICRC members had voted to keep me on ICRC’s Steering Committee. Anti-conservative Republican leaders in Illinois ever-increasingly blamed TAPROOT and George Ryan’s problems and then TAPROOT and ICRC for Jim Ryan’s problems. – Dave Diersen

— According to Democrats, Trump is too old to be President. Starting when I was 25 years old in 1974, according to my Democrat IRS superiors, I was too old to be a GS-13. I finally made GS-13 12 years later when I was 38 years old in 1986. But that was not until after I had a) earned an MBA fin 1976, b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) transferred to GAO in 1980, d) earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, e) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) became a licensed CPA in 1981. The Democrats who run the federal government use up-or-out to get rid of their employees who are Republican, White, male. older, and/or non-veteran.
