They stress the adverse actions that my GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors took against me, especially their forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. They stress that I am no longer a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee (ICRC) member, or American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member. They stress that my fellow ICRC members let a motion to censure me at their 2006 annual convention be voted on.)

MONEY MAGAZINE
— Should I Take a Pay Cut? Determine whether your financial situation can support a lower salary. – Susannah Snider (DIERSEN: Have you taken a pay cut? I have. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I took a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars (from GS-12 Step 5 down to GS-9 Step 10) to transfer from IRS to GAO. QUESTION: Why did I do that? ANSWER: GAO claimed to be nonpartisan and independent. My Democrat superiors and Money Magazine had ruined my IRS career. GAO employees are somewhat less demonized, denigrated, and condemned than IRS employees. Because GAO audits IRS, I could use my knowledge of IRS on audits of 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 $81,071-$91,880. The GAO staff manager who hired me was confident that he could a) promptly get me assigned to audits of IRS and b) promptly promote me to GS-11 Step 10, currently $87,933, to GS-12 Step 5 salary, currently $91,880, and to GS-13 Step 1, currently $96,403. But soon after I transferred to GAO, that GAO manager was deposed and he was not able to promote me to GS-11 Step 10 until 1981, to GS-12 Step 5 salary until 1982, and to GS-13 Step 1 until 1986. In 1986, he finally succeeded in getting me assigned to audits of IRS. In 1987, his Democrat superiors succeeded in forcing him to retire. To justify their forcing me to take a pay cut to transfer from IRS to GAO, my Democrat GAO superiors dismissed/belittled/badmouthed/demonized/denigrated/condemned a) my knowledge of IRS, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my almost completing the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, and d) my earning a MBA from Loyola in 1976. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, or a veteran. Money Magazine, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinate, and the rest of my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being overpaid.)

Did you have a mentor? I did not. Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20180713/mentor-program-for-district-211-alumni-celebrates-first-college-grads
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A program pairing low-income, first-generation college students who are Palatine-Schaumburg High School District 211 alumni with mentors to help them through their higher education celebrated its first graduates at a dinner Thursday night at Palatine High School. Eight of the original 30 students in the Excel Beyond 211 program — 27 percent — received their college degrees within four years, organization President and former District 211 Superintendent Nancy Robb said. That far exceeds the national average for this demographic of college students, in which just 11 percent graduate in six years, she said. The new graduates are now eligible to be mentors themselves for future college students with similar backgrounds.)

Since 1995, it has been stored on a lift in the garage. I have not started it since 2009.

http://abc7chicago.com/politics/paul-ryan-my-car-was-eaten-by-animals/3758684/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ryan hasn’t driven in the three years he’s served as Speaker of the House, he said, because his government security detail provides transportation. During his time in office, the car was left in Wisconsin with his mother, who made a point to turn it on regularly to make sure that the engine still ran. When his mother returned recently from spending the winter in Florida, she found that the SUV wouldn’t start. Ryan had the Suburban towed to a mechanic, who deduced that a family of woodchucks had taken up residence in the underbody the vehicle. “They ate all of the wiring out of it…my car was eaten by animals. It’s just dead,” Ryan said.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: He was greeted by protesters on a nearby beach chanting, “No Trump, no KKK, no racist USA.” Earlier, the BBC reported that police were investigating how a paraglider was able to fly close to Trump’s Turnberry resort with a banner that read, “Trump: Well below par.” As the president was golfing, a crowd of approximately 10,000 was marching in Edinburgh, according to The Guardian. In Glasgow, The Washington Post reported that Scottish police estimated the crowd in the city’s St. George Square to be less than 1,600 people. Jonathon Gillies, a 27-year-old bar worker from Glasgow, told The Washington Post that “nobody here is against Americans. They are welcome to come here anytime. It’s just Trump we have a problem with.” The BBC reported that protest organizers wanted to speak out against “Trump’s politics of division and hatred.”)

IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified veteran, Democrat, minority, or female who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified veteran, Democrat, minority, or female who would take the job. All during the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, the agency downsized. But all during those 18 years, the agency’s employees who were veteran, minority, female, and/or younger (under age 30) were protected from the adverse impacts of that downsizing.)

DAILY HERALD
— Northrop Grumman CEO will step down – Christian Davenport and Aaron (DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were fully aware of and completely disgusted with my attending a rally for Bob Dole in Wheaton on July 4, 1996.) SEE: http://capitalfax.blogspot.com/2008/07/gopusa-illinois-daily-clips-july-6-2008.html)
http://www.dailyherald.com/business/20180713/northrop-grumman-ceo-will-step-down
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The move comes just days after reports surfaced that the company employed a member of a white supremacist organization who participated in a violent rally in Charlottesville last summer. The employee, identified as Michael Miselis by ProPublica and “Frontline,” no longer is employed by the company. But Northrop was slow to respond to the allegations, and the news organizations also reported that he had remained employed even after his superiors had been informed of his actions. In an email to company employees at the time, Bush said that Northrop “would take the appropriate actions to make sure that our foundation remains strong well into the future.” Asked whether the Miselis’ alleged affiliation with a white supremacist group played a role in Bush’s decision to resign, Northrop’s Paynter said “absolutely not.”)

One of my most ferocious critics in Wheaton is a close relative of my GAO superior who in 1989 succeeded in a) throwing me off audits of IRS, b) giving me an adverse job assignment, and c) getting my supervisor to give me unfair performance expectations and an unfair performance appraisal.

NEW YORK POST
— Want more skilled workers? Create them – Jonathon Trugman (DIERSEN: My Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted what  I learned when I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. My Democrat GAO superiors wasted the knowledge that I had from working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $81,071-$91,880.)
https://nypost.com/2018/07/07/want-more-skilled-workers-create-them/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And there’s another wonderful solution: Invest in the future of your business while at the same time investing in the future of your employees. Yes, training is expensive, especially for the highest-skill jobs. And yes, it can run into the tens of thousands of dollars in certain cases. But in exchange for the training, you could require a commensurate commitment. For example, if you need to hire welders, and you can’t find any that meet your qualifications, advertise that you “will train” or “will pay for certification.” You will be likely to attract a good number of long-term unemployed looking to retrain for the modern workforce. By sending them to vocational school with a formal agreement to come work for the company upon certification and tuition reimbursement or direct payment, you are forging a long-lasting connection between your company and a person who could use a little help. So let’s stop all this corporate complaining how hard it is to find qualified workers. The solutions are simple: Offer more pay, and/or more or flexible hours. And offer training in exchange for a commitment from people who will grow your firm.)

— Hysteria about the Supreme Court vacancy isn’t about abortion — it’s about reparations – JAMES GAGLIANO (DIERSEN: Who should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that it should be me. They stress that I am White, male, old (born in 1948), 100% German national origin, my ancestors have been America for a long time (since 1844), conservative, Republican, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), draft avoider, and non-poor. How many of the aforesaid terrible demographics do you share with me? In my defense, my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois.)
http://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/395945-hysteria-about-supreme-court-vacancy-isnt-about-abortion-its-about
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A progressive court would sense our nation’s sovereign borders differently; immigration issues would be viewed through the prism of globalism. Liberal judges tend to apply pluralistic conditions to their considered opinions. Judicial activism would proliferate in the guise of “righting historical injustices” and, in particular, redressing America’s “original sin” — slavery. If Trump succeeds in appointing a conservative justice, for example, the court effectively would rule against any legislative efforts to have America – meaning the taxpayer – pay some $4.1 trillion to African Americans related to the impact of slavery, as David Horowitz outlines in his 2016 book, “Progressive Racism. ”A liberal Court would see this controversial issue very differently than a conservative Court. And some supporters of reparations already have mapped a way for descendants of slaves to receive some form of compensation. Georgetown University professor and author Michael Eric Dyson has gone so far as to suggest that white Americans — no matter whether their ancestors were slave-owners or not — should maintain an “individual reparations account” as a means of “atonement.” This would involve making donations to African American groups. The Trump administration’s Department of Education already has begun moves to undercut Obama-era policy guidelines to universities to consider race in college admissions if legally possible. Quotas, racial preferences, and the landmark 1978 Supreme Court decision to legalize affirmative action have given way to a far more innocuous, benign term — diversity — and been upheld by the Court as recently as 2016. But the construct — reparations — remains the same. While these “reparations” may be well-intended, they penalize Americans whose ancestors played no role in slavery, in order to compensate Americans who were never enslaved. If the Supreme Court’s ideological majority flipped, future generations would be left to foot the bill.)

— The unemployed are a wasted asset – Paul A. London, Washington (DIERSEN: I have been unemployed since 1997 when I was 49 years old, and before that, the federal government underemployed me. I earned a) job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. The federal government would not have wasted my career if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, and/or a veteran. I should write a book about those who have done the most to waste what I learned a) working for IRS for almost 9 years, b) earning an MBA from Loyola, c) passing the CPA examination on my first attempt, d) earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul e) passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt, f) earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT, and g) working for GAO for almost 18 years.)

— 7 money goals to hit by the time you’re 35 that are actually achievable – Judith Ohikuare (DIERSEN: In today’s dollars, I doubled my salary when I was 30. In today’s dollars, I earned $45,703/year (GS-7 Step 1) when I was 22 and $91,880/year (GS-12 Step 5) when I was 30. According to Money Magazine’s February 1978 article on me, in today’s dollars, at the end of 1977, my net worth was $199,615 of which $27,354 was my Civil Service Retirement System contributions.)
http://www.thisisinsider.com/money-goals-to-hit-by-35-that-are-actually-achievable-2018-7
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chances are, you’ve seen the advice floating around that advises 35-year-olds to have twice their annual salary in savings if they plan to retire by 67 “and live a similar lifestyle.” If you are 35 years old and you have just one year’s annual salary shored up, congratulations a million times over — you’re well ahead of the game. In 2017, the median salary for Americans aged 35 to 44 was $50,752 annually, based on figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. By contrast, the Federal Reserve found that the same age demographic had a median $5,000 in a savings account. All Americans, on average, had just over $33,766 saved, and one-third had $0 saved for retirement in 2016. Obviously, the double-your-salary-by-35 figure isn’t realistic for many working people in the U.S. — especially those in their mid-thirties.)

GAO, my Democrat GAO superiors argued that they did nothing to get me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. But in fact, they made it extremely clear to me that if I did not take their “offer,” they would a) make my life a living hell and b) constructively, if not actually, demote me. They told me that if I did not take their “offer,” they would assign me to work for my subordinates. All my subordinates were Democrat minorities and/or Democrat females who were younger than me and who had an extremely low opinion of me and of those who share my demographics. They hinted/implied that they would give me performance expectations and performance appraisals that would be even more unfair. They hinted/implied that they might do less to destroy me if I would a) dump my 9 years of experience auditing federal financial industry regulators and b) dump my 1997 master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and try to get assigned to a different audit group.)

For me, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would say it was three very bad things: a) my avoiding the draft, b) the federal government grossly overpaying me, and c) my wife and I giving up trying to have children, our not adopting, and our not becoming foster parents.)
https://www.fool.com/retirement/2018/07/04/financial-freedom-eludes-many-but-social-security.aspx
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a Bankrate survey released in March, most Americans fail to save an adequate amount of their income. While most financial advisors recommend that people save 15% or more of what they earn, just 16% of respondents to Bankrate’s survey were heeding this advice. By comparison, 19% weren’t saving a red cent, 21% were putting away 1% to 5% of their earnings, and another 25% were saving 6% to 10% of their income. In another context, essentially two-thirds of Americans are saving nothing or very little, thusly putting their retirement in jeopardy.)

My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that at best, my Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives consider me to be “too conservative.”)

Trachtenberg (DIERSEN: In 1997, when I was 49 years old, if my Democrat GAO superiors had been honest, they would have announced that they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” a) to punish me for being an active member of a class action lawsuit since 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) to send a strong message to Democrats, to minorities, and to females that GAO gets rid of its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who do not make GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. Because my Democrat GAO superiors did not announce that, because my Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives did not come to my defense in Diersen v. GAO, and because I was denied my 7th Amendment right to a jury trial in Diersen v. GAO, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that GAO got rid of me because I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things.)
