— My critics/opponents promote Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI, that is, they promote patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, that is, they reject meritocracy. I am the opposite of an AA/DEI hire. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. I earned a diploma from Crete-Monee High School and passed the postal employment examination in 1966. Further, I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and became a Forensic Accountant in 1997. I became a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996. I became a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, my Democrat superiors would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service long before I was 40. Instead, all my coworkers who they promoted over me were Democrats who were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran and 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. – Dave Diersen

— According to my critics/opponents, a) they owe all their accomplishments in life to meritocracy, b) I owe none of my accomplishments in life to meritocracy, and c) I owe all of my accomplishments in life to my benefitting tremendously from discrimination against a) minorities, b) females, c) younger people, d) unmarried people, e) LGBTQers, f) veterans, g) non-Protestants, h) non-German Americans, and/or i) those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents are/were especially wealthy. They ignore/dismiss/belittle the fact a) that neither of my parents attended college, b) that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, c) that my mother never attended high school, and d) that I had to work my way through college. – Dave Diersen

I should write a book about my Democrat and RINO superiors. I would show how my Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors and my RINO Milton Township Republican Organization superiors have made me pay reparations big time.

Being forced to retire makes it impossible to get a job appropriate for your work experience, education, professional certifications, and/or profession licenses. My Democrat GAO superiors rendered worthless what I had learned a) working for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439- $150,075/year, b) working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year, c) earning three job-related master’s degrees, d) earing six job-related professional certifications, and e) earning a job-related professional license.

— I protested Vietnam War at DNC 1968. – Terry Ratner (COMMENT: Anticipate/expect that hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters will ever-increasingly stress that Trump avoided the Vietnam War draft. Duckworth will take the lead. Did the Vietnam War draft impact you? It impacted me big time. Both those who supported the war and those who opposed the war used it against me. I did not enlist. I got student draft deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. Those who supported the war stressed that I was 1-A, that I did not enlist, and that I got draft deferments. Those who opposed the war stressed that I was a Republican. They stressed that while my peers were dying in Vietnam, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, a new townhome in 1972, and condos in downtown Chicago in 1974 and 1976. They stressed that while my peers were dying in Vietnam, I earned a bachelor’s degree in 1970 and an MBA in 1976. In my defense, I earned the money for the aforesaid by washing dishes 1964-1966, cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline in 1966, delivering mail 1966-1969, working on an automobile assembly line in 1970, selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumping gasoline 1971-1972, and collecting delinquent taxes 1971-1980. Further, they stressed that while my peers were dying in Vietnam, I took big vacations in 1969, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1974, 1975. and 1976. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I would not have been able to do the aforesaid if I had not avoided the Vietnam War draft. Further, they have always stressed that because of my health problems, I would not have been sent into combat anyway. My Democrat Post Office, Firestone Stores, IRS, and GAO superiors used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me the most. I should write a book about that.)

— Did you get any scholarships? I did not. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. My ACT score was only 24.

Further, they have always used against me my not getting any financial hardship scholarships to hint/imply/argue/shout that my parents were filthy rich. They ignore the fact that to pay for my undergraduate college expenses and for cars to get to/from classes, I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, and worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970.

August 6, 2024 – Harris picks Walz
NEWSWEEK
— Tim Walz Is Kamala Harris’ Pick for VP – Jesus Mesa
https://www.newsweek.com/tim-walz-kamala-harris-vice-president-1934825
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kamala Harris has chosen Tim Walz, the governor of Minnesota, to be her running mate, CNN reported Tuesday morning, as the Democrats strive to gain ground on former President Donald Trump with just over three months until the November election. An official announcement was expected within hours, with the pair set for their first campaign rally in Philadelphia later on Tuesday. Walz, 60, now in his second term as governor, has gained recognition for his progressive policies while also maintaining an ability to appeal to both urban and rural voters. His selection aims to balance the Democratic ticket, leveraging his Midwestern roots and legislative success to attract a broader base of support. His national profile started to rise after he became the first Democrat to publicly label Trump and his running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance, as “weird”—a narrative that has since been seized upon by Democrats. As a vice-presidential candidate, Tim Walz was something of a dark horse. Though his name had only started to surface in recent weeks as a potential contender, he wasn’t typically seen as one of the frontrunners — especially given that Minnesota is a relatively solid blue state. Josh Shapiro, from the must-win commonwealth of Pennsylvania, was widely considered the favorite. Walz brings a unique national political resume: He was a non-commissioned Army officer, public school teacher, and state high school championship football coach before entering politics. As a congressman, he represented Minnesota’s 1st Congressional District—a long-considered GOP bastion—and was re-elected five more times.)

I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. They stressed the many unemployed Blacks in Chicagoland and especially in the south suburbs. In 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire early so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. My critics/opponents who never took jobs like the ones I took make it very clear that they would never stoop to take the jobs that I took. While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997, many, most, and at times, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and/or subordinates were Black.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— How much weight do you give the precinct letters that you receive from your Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC)? Sadly, a DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC) leader who is a registered Republican voter (RRV) in my precinct angrily/rudely told me that she had thrown my April 2024 precinct letter ( https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/june-5-2024/ ) in her trash. In 2004, another DCRCC leader badmouthed me to another RRV in my precinct. That RRV complained about that to the RNC and the RNC reprimanded that DCRCC leader. Since I became a RPC in 1999, leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DCRCC, and Illinois Republican Party who are anti-conservative and/or anti-direct election of IRP State Central Committee members have done everything that they could to discredit me and to get rid of me. MTRO got a RRV in my precinct to run against me for RPC in 2000. MTRO rudely ended my service as MTRO webmaster in 2004 and 2010. MTRO rudely refused to make me a delegate to the 2004 IRP State Convention. MTRO rudely ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004. MTRO, DCRCC, and/or IRP played big roles a) in almost getting the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, b) in ending my membership on the ICRC Steering Committee in 2007, c) in ending my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, d) in ending my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, e) in ending my bid to be selected to fill a Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, and f) in ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. MTRO rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. IRP rudely removed me from the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee this year. Ever-increasingly, the aforesaid MTRO, DCRCC, and IRP leaders blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for defeats that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct suffer. Ever-increasingly, they hint/imply/argue/shout that the more that I do to help elect a candidate, the fewer votes that candidate will get. In light of the aforesaid, what advice do you have for me concerning my precinct letter for the November 5, 2024 election? – Dave Diersen

— Democrats and their news media don’t even try to hide what they think of you. – Everett Piper (COMMENT: Who has a low opinion of you? Those who have a low opinion of me reject planks in the Republican Party platform. Those who have a low opinion of me 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 wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money. Those who have a low opinion of me have been defendants in lawsuits that I have filed and their attorneys. Who do you have a low opinion of? I have a low opinion of those who have used pretexts to take many big adverse actions against me.)

— Report Provides Evidence of Devastating Influence of DEI on U.S. Military Operations. Report claims senior White Male officers are required to tow the DEI line, or watch their careers implode. – James Nault (COMMENT: To get promoted in the federal government you have to promote Affirmative Action and DEI big time, that is, you have to give tremendous preference to your Democrat subordinates who are minority, female, younger, veteran, disabled, non-Protestant, non-German American, have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, and/or have severe health and/or performance problems. While I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS 1971-1980 and GAO 1980-1997, all their employees who they assigned me to supervise were many, if not most, if not virtually all of the aforesaid. I did give them tremendous preference, but that was not enough. All my coworkers who they promoted over me were Democrats 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. I should write a book about all my Democrat superiors in the federal government, all their employees who they assigned me to supervise, and all their employees who they promoted over me.)

— JD Vance Puts Kamala Harris’ ‘Loyalty’ Into Question Again. – Sarah Arnold (COMMENT: I should write about those leaders of the following who ended my roles in the following: TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce (WCC) Government Affairs Committee (GAC), Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC), and American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) Midwest Chapter (MC). I was the TAPROOT chairman 2005-2012, a WCC GAC member 2003-2011, the MTRO webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, an ICRC officer 2003-2007, and an AAPC MC board member 2001-2004.)
https://townhall.com/tipsheet/saraharnold/2024/08/04/jd-vance-has-some-words-for-kamala-harris-n2642939
(FROM THE ARTICLE: GOP Vice President candidate Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) turned the tables around on Vice President Kamala Harris after she had been questioning his loyalty. Harris is someone who pulled the rug out from her boss after a successful “coup.” During a rally in Atlanta, Georgia, on Saturday with former President Donald Trump, Vance told Harris to “look in the mirror” to see “the face of disloyalty.” Harris played a significant role in ousting President Joe Biden, who critics say was the ringleader of the most significant political coverup in modern U.S. history.)

AZ MIRROR
— Democrats, Republicans view precinct committeemen in very different lights. – JEREMY DUDA (COMMENT: Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) leaders appointed me to fill a vacant Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC) position in 1999. I was elected RPC for that precinct in 2000 and every 2 years since. Because MTRO leaders soon determined that I am too conservative for them, that is, because I promote too many planks in the Republican Party platform that they reject including the following planks, they would not appoint me now to fill a vacant RPC position: personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). Further, they would not appoint me RPC now because they know that they cannot manipulate or dominate me and because I refuse to a) glorify and praise them, b) pander to them, c) serve as one of their operatives or dupes, d) cover up their wrong doing, or e) give them money. Further, they blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all the defeats that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000. Further, they rudely had me removed from the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee this year. They rudely threw my April 2024 PC letter in their trash. They rudely had me removed as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, a role that I had since 2005. They rudely killed my bid to be appointed to fill a Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019. They rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. They rudely had me removed as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2012. They rudely had me removed as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member in 2011. They rudely had me removed me as MTRO webmaster in 2010 and 2004. They rudely had me removed as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member in 2007. They almost rudely succeeded in getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006. They rudely killed my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004. According to them, I bring all my problems on myself, that is, I create all my own problems.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Donald Trump and the Black Journalists. The former President meets his critics head on. Where was Kamala Harris? – Editorial (COMMENT: I have always met my critics/opponents head on, but I am losing motivation to do that. The majority, and often supermajority, of Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Party, and Illinois Republican Party leaders and members have been my biggest critics/opponents. They reject some, many, most, if not virtually all of the planks in the Republican Party platform. They destroy those like me a) who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who refuse to pander to them, d) who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who refuse to give them money.

— Democrats say “Biden Renews Push for Student-Debt Relief With Emails to Millions of Borrowers. The administration is finalizing rules for its new program, while other debt relief has been temporarily halted by legal challenges.” My critics/opponents have always stressed that I never got a scholarship or a student loan. They hint/imply/argue/shout that was because I was not college material and because my parents were filthy rich.

POLITICO
— Democrats say “Trump defends ‘Black jobs’ comment to room of Black journalists.” Since I was 13 years old in 1962, my critics/opponents have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me for my taking jobs that they say should have been given to Blacks. I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. They stressed the many unemployed Blacks in Chicagoland and especially in the south suburbs. In 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire early so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. My critics/opponents who never took jobs like the ones I took make it very clear that they would never stoop to take the jobs that I took.

HUFFINGTON POST
— Democrats and RINOs oppose E-Verify. Democrats because illegals vote for Democrats and RINOs because RINOs want cheap labor. Illegal immigration harms low-skilled American workers because it drives wages down. It especially harms younger Americans whose parents are not wealthy. Because my parents were not wealthy, I had to work my way through college. I was able to do that back in the 1960s, but I would not be able to do that today.
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/15-years-since-federal-minimum-wage-increased_n_669918ece4b047588a4ae3c5
(FROM THE ARTICLE: GOP Sens. Mitt Romney (Utah) and Tom Cotton (Ark.) proposed a plan in 2021 that would hike the federal wage floor from $7.25 to $10 per hour while instituting a nationwide mandate that employers use E-Verify, the system meant to confirm workers are not undocumented. Some, but not all, states currently require employers to use E-Verify when hiring. Many Democrats viewed the E-Verify provision as a poison pill and the proposed increase as insufficient. The party has coalesced around a minimum wage of at least $15, a level most Americans support in polling.)

Before that, the was a longtime donor to the Democratic party, and a prominent philanthropic donor. With his substantial wealth, progressive stances, and growing national profile since taking office, Pritzker could prove to be an appealing choice for Democrats as Biden’s replacement on the ticket. Pritzker was a major supporter of both of Hillary Clinton’s campaigns for president in 2008 and 2016.

— Democrats say “The Democrats who could be Kamala Harris’ running mate.”
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/kamala-harris-running-mates-democratic-presidential-ticket-rcna162848
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Pritzker, 59, was an active Biden campaign surrogate, traveling to battleground states to stump for him. He founded a nonprofit committee, Think Big America, to advocate for abortion rights and to combat extremism, with a focus on battleground states. Pritzker, a second-term governor who is popular in the state, has been outspoken about protecting women’s reproductive rights and has held up Illinois as a beacon for women seeking access to care. Pritzker has signed a host of progressive initiatives into law, including a ban on assault weapons, ghost guns and switches; an increase in the minimum wage; a measure to enshrine abortion protections into law; and measures to legalize cannabis and expunge records. He has invested in early childhood education, working toward universal preschool in the state. Pritzker has also demonstrated considerable political savvy, having landed the 2024 Democratic National Convention in his state after repeated lobbying. Pritzker is widely considered to be a future presidential contender. As a billionaire who has self-financed his campaigns in the past, he is positioned to effortlessly step into a national campaign and immediately be flush with cash. Pritzker endorsed Harris on Monday.)

— Democrats ask “What pushed President Biden to withdraw from the reelection race?” What pushed you to make big decisions? According to my Democrat GAO superiors, their threats and the adverse actions that they had taken against me had nothing to do with my decision to take their early retirement “offer” when I was 49 years old in 1997. Their “offer” ended on September 30, 1997 and I would not be eligible for regular retirement until I was 55 in 2003. They made it extremely clear that if I did not take their “offer,” they would make my next 6 years a living hell. Their threat to constructively downgrade me was the least of it. They had a) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, b) never promoted me to GS-14 and delayed my promotions to GS-13, 12, and 11, c) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for them, and d) forced me to take a $22,996/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. They ignored/dismissed/belittled/badmouthed my earning a) job-related master’s degrees in 1997, 1980, and 1976, b) job-related professional certifications in 1997, 1996, 1994, 1990, 1981, and 1979, and c) a job-related professional license (CPA) in 1981. They ignored/dismissed/belittled/badmouthed my knowledge of IRS that I had acquired working for IRS for almost 9 years. the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had not become an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

— DuPage County GOP Statement on Biden Withdrawal
https://dupagegop.com/
(PRESS RELEASE: During the debate a few weeks ago, it became evident to all of us what the Democratic Party elite have known for some time: Joe Biden is unfit for the presidency. Only when this became universally apparent did the Democratic Party elite like Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and other Washington insiders decide to pressure Biden to withdraw, thereby disenfranchising the millions of Democratic primary voters who backed him. In the next few days, we will see these same elites, who have incessantly preached about “saving democracy,” abandon our country’s democratic principles by imposing their preferred presidential candidate on the American electorate.)

He founded a nonprofit committee, Think Big America, to advocate for abortion rights and to combat extremism, with a focus on battleground states. Pritzker, a second-term governor who is popular in the state, has been outspoken about protecting women’s reproductive rights and has held up Illinois as a beacon for women seeking access to care. Pritzker has signed a host of progressive initiatives into law, including a ban on assault weapons, ghost guns and switches; an increase in the minimum wage; a measure to enshrine abortion protections into law; and measures to legalize cannabis and expunge records. He has invested in early childhood education, working toward universal preschool in the state. Pritzker has also demonstrated considerable political savvy, having landed the 2024 Democratic National Convention in his state after repeated lobbying. Pritzker is widely considered to be a future presidential contender. As a billionaire who has self-financed his campaigns in the past, he is positioned to effortlessly step into a national campaign and immediately be flush with cash. In a statement issued after Biden’s announcement, Pritzker didn’t address whether he would run for president or endorse Harris.)
