— President Donald J. Trump Ensures Accountability and Prioritizes Public Safety in Federal Hiring. 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, or veteran who would take the job. I would not have become a postal employee when I was 18 years old in 1966 if my high school friend had not invited me to take the postal employment examination with him earlier that year. I would not have become an IRS employee in 1971 if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

I should have majored in accounting at UIC 1966-1968 and NIU 1969-1970. I did not start taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul until 1976. I did not take and pass the CPA examination on my first attempt until 1979. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until 1980. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt until 1981. I did not become a licensed CAP until 1981. But by then, the accounting profession saw me as being far too old to have a successful career in accounting. On top of that, the accounting profession was under tremendous pressure to hire, retain, and promote young minorities and young women.

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH PICTURE: With new power, Trump will move immediately to lay off federal workers. Arguably, Gingrich’s greatest achievement was gutting GAO. If he had reformed GAO instead of gutting it, I might still be a GAO employee. For sure, my Democrat GAO superiors could/would not have been able to a) force me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, b) always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, c) keep me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, d) delay my promotions and never promote me beyond GS-13, and e) force me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/07/09/trump-wins-broad-authority-to-lay-off-federal-workers-without-congress/84520149007/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Donald Trump has seized the authority to lay off federal workers and reorganize the federal government in a way that critics say no president has been able to do in more than 100 years. The power, which the Supreme Court gave temporarily in a July 8 order, puts at risk thousands of federal jobs across the country at agencies that collect taxes, provide health care to veterans, and help administer retirement benefits. Labor unions say the cuts fly in the face of established law and decades of tradition, but a senior White House official told USA the layoffs are legal, and the administration intends to immediately reduce the size of government. While the court did not rule on the underlying question of Trump’s ability to enact widespread job cuts, the justices said they were likely to affirm that power.)

POLITICO
— Supreme Court disabuses federal workers who thought their jobs were safe. Civil servants told POLITICO they’re anxious and exhausted, but holding out hope their lawyers can still save their jobs. When I was 49 years old In 1997, I thought that my GAO job was safe, but I WAS WRONG. I erroneously thought that my job was safe because of Civil Service protections and because I had earned three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license. But I caved in and took my Democrat GAO superiors’ forced early retirement “offer.” After I did that, I erroneously hoped that Bush, Hastert, Fitzgerald, and Hyde would come to my defense, but they did not.

FEDERAL NEWS NEWORK
— Updated ‘PLUM’ book offers deeper look at Trump administration officials working governmentwide. The latest PLUM book contains 9,151 entries with space for each official’s name, agency, title and pay rate, although some data is still missing or outdated. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats. Many, most, and at times, virtually all of them were minorities, females, and/or veterans.

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF WOMEN
— All those who my Democrat superiors promoted over me were Democrats a) who were minority, female, and/or younger than me and/or b) 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.

MEDIUM
— People aren’t leaving bad jobs because the risk of no job is worse. Because of negative federal employee stereotypes, the longer that you are a federal employee, the more difficult/impossible that it is to get a job in the private sector. I became a federal employee when I was 18 years old in 1966. Private sector employers look down on federal employees. Private sectors employers were not interested in me a) when I earned a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970, b) when I earned an MBA in 1976, c) when I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) when I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, e) when I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, f) when I became a licensed CPA in 1981, g) when I earned four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and h) when I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading in 1997. Because of Affirmative Action and DEI, my not being a minority, female, younger, or veteran made things even worse. I should write about that.

GUARDIAN
— Trump to cut 2,145 NASA employees. Cuts further the push to slash federal government through early retirement, buyouts and deferred resignations. Gingrich cut 3,000 GAO jobs, half of the agency’s employees. My Democrat GAO superiors punished me viciously for that. They a) forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO, b) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, c) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, d) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, and e) forced me to retire when I was 49 years old.

— Democrat elected officials ever-increasingly pass laws to get rid of Republicans. As Democrats ever-increasingly move into your state, county, and municipality, they will ever-increasingly elect officials who will ever-increasingly pass laws to get rid of Republicans. Because Republicans are predominately conservative, White, male, older, married, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time, Democrat laws will harm them the most. That is why Republicans who are the following are ever-increasingly leaving Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.

— What do you think of pensioners? My critics/opponent despise/hate pensioners. In my defense, my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension is only $66,780/year. It would be much more if my Democrat superiors in the federal government had not wasted my career, took many big adverse actions against me, and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. In today’s dollars, my pension is only 44% of what my salary was in 1997 and less than what my salary was when I was 23 years old in 1972. To get that pension, I had to pay CSRS 7% for my salary and I had to survive and overcome many big adverse actions. – Dave Diersen

I should write about my critics/opponents.

— Ex-dairy owner Jim Oberweis to fundraise in Kane County Sunday for Florida Congressional run. But local GOP chief would like to keep political money in Illinois: ‘I’m concerned with Kane County, not with Naples, Florida.’
https://www.shawlocal.com/news/2025/06/21/ex-dairy-owner-jim-oberweis-to-fundraise-in-kane-county-sunday-for-florida-congressional-run/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Illinois State Sen. Jim Oberweis is returning to Kane County for a fundraiser to support his run for Congress in Florida’s 19th District. Oberweis, formerly of Sugar Grove, is running in the 2026 Republican primary seat on Florida’s southern Gulf Coast being vacated by Byron Donalds in the 2026 primary election. The fundraiser is from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Sunday at the Dunham Woods Riding Club, 33W333 Army Trail Road in Wayne, according to the invitation. According to the invitation, the guest speaker will be Corey Brooks, known as Chicago’s “Rooftop Pastor,” who delivered a prayer at the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. Individual tickets for the Oberweis fundraiser are $250, available through RSVP@VoteJimO.com. No one from the campaign could be reached for comment. (COPY OF THE INVITATION) Even though he received an invitation, Kane County GOP Chairman Andro Lerario said he isn’t going. “With all due respect to Jim Oberweis – I like him, he’s a nice man – I’m concerned with Kane County, not with Naples, Florida,” Lerario said. “My issue is, he’s running for a position in Florida,” Lerario said. “I’ve already gone through two different situations in our party where, during the last election year, we had our own people do fundraisers in Kane County for Kari Lake and General [Michael] Flynn.” Lake lost her bid to represent Arizona in the U.S. Senate and Flynn was raising money for a conservative nonprofit, America’s Future. Both fundraisers were held last year in St. Charles, records show. “These were very successful. Then they left Kane County,” Lerario said. “I don’t need another fundraiser that is going to take money out of Kane County when I have enough issues going on here. Do it in that state or that county, not here. With all due respect, we could use the money.” Oberweis, aside from being famous for ice cream, is also known for losing more elections than he has won. He lost a bid for the Illinois 14th Congressional District to Democrat Lauren Underwood in 2020. In 2008, Oberweis lost twice to Democrat Bill Foster, first in a special election for the remainder of J. Dennis Hastert’s seat and then in the general election. In 2006, Oberweis lost the GOP primary for Illinois governor. In 2002 and 2004, he lost Republican primaries in Illinois for U.S. Senate. In 2012, Oberweis won for the 25th District seat in the Illinois Senate and served two terms. In 2014, he won the GOP primary for U.S. Senate, but lost in the general election to incumbent U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, who recently announced he won’t seek reelection next year. Last year, the dairy that bears Oberweis’ family name filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. He had left the company in 2007 when he passed Oberweis Dairy on to his son.)
NPR ILLINOIS
— Trump’s makeover of the Civil Service has made it easier to fire federal employees. For Democrat leaders, the federal government exists to hire, retain, and promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who are minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. For Democrat leaders, federal employees are their Patronage Army. 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. They gambled that I would become a Democrat, but I refused to do that. I carried out their orders to give preference to my Democrat subordinates, virtually all of whom were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran. But because I ever-increasingly complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, they ever-increasingly took more and bigger adverse actions against me. I should write a book about the aforesaid.
https://www.nprillinois.org/2025-06-21/trumps-makeover-of-the-civil-service-has-made-it-easier-to-fire-people-critics-say

President says it’s part of making the government more accountable. His critics contend that he is politicizing the civil service.)

— New federal pension system would put more burden on new employees. I worked for the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997. Federal employees hired before 1989 were under the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) . Those hired after 1989 are under the less generous Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS). That ever-increasingly made FERS employees resent, despise, if not hate CSRS employees. I should write about that.

— For Democrat leaders, the federal government exists to hire, retain, and promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who are minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. For Democrat leaders, federal employees are their Patronage Army. 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. They gambled that I would become a Democrat, but I refused to do that. I carried out their orders to give preference to my Democrat subordinates, virtually all of whom were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran. But because I ever-increasingly complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, they ever-increasingly took more and bigger adverse actions against me. I should write a book about the aforesaid.
https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/trump-essay-writing-test-is-new-sordid-strategy-to-obliterate-enemies-report/ar-AA1GNZ3T
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Donald Trump is bulldozing through decades of nonpartisan federal employment protections in a brazen attempt to transform the entire government workforce into a cadre of personal loyalists, according to alarmed federal workers and public service watchdogs. The authoritarian makeover would obliterate longstanding precedent requiring federal hiring and promotion based on qualifications and experience—replacing it with ideological purity tests that prioritize devotion to Trump over competence or constitutional duty. “These employees could be replaced with partisan loyalists — people who will obey any order, regardless of the Constitution,” warned Joe Spielberger of the Project on Government Oversight, told the Washington Post. “This elevates loyalty to an individual president over the oath of office and the best interests of the public.” Trump’s radical restructuring includes forcing new federal workers to accept easily-fired “at-will” status or pay higher retirement contributions. Even more disturbing, job applicants must now write essays explaining how they’ll advance Trump’s personal agenda—a chilling loyalty test reminiscent of authoritarian regimes. The administration’s “Merit Hiring Plan” requires candidates to answer: “How would you help advance the President’s Executive Orders and policy priorities in this role?” the Post reported. The article added that federal workers are horrified by the transparent political screening. “That memo details this administration’s sordid strategy to turn a nonpartisan federal workforce into a merry band of MAGA loyalists,” said Aisha Coffey, an FDA communications specialist who was fired and is now on administrative leave. “The directive is clear: The civil service is to serve the president, first and foremost, and the American population last.”

BLOOMBERG
— House GOP Drafts Cuts to Federal Employee Pension System. According to critics/opponents, my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension (currently $66,780/year) is much too generous. They decry that it would be even higher if my Democrat superiors a) had not forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, b) had not delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, and c) had not forced me to resign when I was 20 years old in 1969. They remain furious that I got full-time CSRS credit while I worked for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 while I worked only part-time and that I got CSRS credit for my unused sick days. In my defense, while I worked for the federal government, I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license.

Back in the good old days, that is, during the 1960s, a) I was able to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in when I was 17 years old in May of 1966 after earning the minimum wage (inflation adjusted $12.36/hour) part-time for 15 months and full-time for 3 months, b) I was able to buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in December of 1967 after earning a GS-4 Step 1 salary (currently $19.37/hour) part-time for 9 months and full-time for 3 months, and c) I was able to buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in December of 1968 after earning a GS-4 Step 2 salary (currently $20.02/hour) part time for 9 months and full-time for 3 months. In addition, with the aforesaid salaries and then earning a GS-4 Step 3 salary (currently $20.67/hour) part-time for 7 months and full-time for 3 months, I paid my UIC expenses 1966-1968 and my NIU expenses in 1969 and 1970 and graduated debt-free in August of 1970 owning that Charger. Granted, my parents provided me with room and board during the aforesaid time except for 3 semesters and a summer session while I was at NIU.

https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/06/12/dupage-naperville-republican-democrat-vote-mail/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To date, significantly more Democratic primary voters are on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, DuPage County Chief Deputy Clerk Adam Johnson. As of Wednesday, there was a total of 98,413 voters on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, according to Johnson. That number divides into voters who have opted to receive mail-ballots for general elections only and those who have requested to also receive primary ballots, he said. The latter is how the county can glean the partisan divide in its vote-by-mail program as voters must request either a Democratic or Republican primary ballot. Current numbers show that 47,110 Democratic primary voters have signed up for the program compared to 19,525 Republican voters, Johnson said. Those totals have also grown since the 2022 primary election, which was the first in which the permanent vote-by-mail program was offered. In 2022, there were 20,482 Democratic primary voters compared to 8,009 Republican voters.)

Ever-increasingly, they are demonized, denigrated, and condemned. I got in line for a Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension when I was 18 in 1966. I have been getting a CSRS pension since I was 49 in 1997. In my defense, I paid 7% of my federal salary into the CSRS. In my defense, if my Democrat GAO superiors had not forced me to retire, I might still be working for GAO and paying into the CSRS. Constructively, so far, in today’s dollars, my Democrat GAO superiors have forced CSRS to pay me $1.85 million to stop me from working for GAO.

I had audited SEC and other federal financial industry regulators for the previous 8 years at the GS-13 Step 4-10 Levels, currently $129,588-$153,151/year. I had just earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. For that matter, IRS would have immediately offered me a job. I had audited IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division for 3 years at the GS-13 Step 1-3 Levels, currently $117,807-$125,675/year. 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 became a Certified Forensic Accountant in 1997, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Fraud Examiner in 1990, Internal Auditor in 1981, and Public Accountant in 1979.

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. Further, I got lots of legal experience serving as an active member in a class action lawsuit and pursuing lawsuits pro se. – Dave Diersen

— To hire, retain, and promote more Democrats who were younger, minority, and/or female, my superiors in the federal government ever-increasingly lowered their hiring, retention, and promotion standards. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless a) my job-related bachelor’s degree (1970) and three job-related master’s degrees (1976, 1980, and 1997), b) my six job-related professional certifications (1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997), and c) my job-related professional license (1981). 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

— What do your critics/opponents stress the most to hint/imply/argue/shout that you benefitted from slavery? Mine stress that all my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s. In my defense, I stress that they always lived in northeast Illinois and that a) on my father’s side, they first worked in a brick factory in Chicago, then homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete Township, then raised and sold horses in Crete, and then operated Crete’s only hardware store and b) on my mother’s side, they sharecropped a farm in Grant Park along the Indiana border and then bought that farm. – Dave Diersen

— Constructively, if not literally, Democrat and RINO leaders rank those who are under them. 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.”)
