— The Democratic Party of DuPage County announced a unique protest, Hands Across Chicagoland, from noon to 2 p.m. Sunday, May 18. Area Democrats plan to form a human chain along Ogden Avenue stretching from Chicago to Aurora. They promised “we will not block streets or businesses along the route.” How successful have Democrat leaders been driving Republicans out of your county, township, municipality, school district, and precinct? When Democrats move in, poverty and crime increase.

— Trump’s DEI crackdown increasingly makes Democrat and RINO employers worried about lawsuits. Because Democrats have always controlled the courts, my Democrat superiors in the federal government were never concerned about lawsuits against them from their Republican employees. Actually, they welcomed such lawsuits against them, if not encouraged such lawsuits against them. You would see that if you would read the documents in Diersen v. GAO https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf According to them, in that lawsuit, the courts ruled that federal employers can use the following to waste the careers of and to get rid of their Republican employees who are White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, and/or German American: budget cuts, up-or-out, and/or Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. My Democrat superiors crow that they succeeded in destroying a Republican federal employee who had a) three job-related master’s degrees, b) six job-related professional certifications, and c) a job-related professional license. – Dave Diersen

I share all of the aforesaid demographics with Trump. I should write about my critics/opponents and the many big adverse actions that they have had their operatives and their dupes take against me since 2015.

To advance, my coworkers glorified and praised their superiors and supervisors, pandered to their superiors and supervisors, and served as operatives or dupes for their superiors and supervisors.

My mother had never worked outside of the home. My brother was having troubles. I applied for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support them. I needed a job. Potential employers saw me as being draft bait. I accepted the only job offer that I got. It was a job that did not really require a college degree. I started taking graduate evening business courses, but only one at a time. Because of that, I did not earn an MBA from Loyola until I was 27. By then, it was too late. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul until I was 31. By then, again, it was too late. It took me 4 years because again, I took only one graduate evening accounting course at a time. I did not pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32.

It took me 5 years because again, I took only one graduate evening finance course at a time. Why did I take only one graduate evening course at a time? Because that was all that I could afford in terms of time, attention, and money. Age discrimination is real, and especially for those who are White, male, and/or non-veteran. It is called up-or-out.

— Krishnamoorthi leads panel at Harper College on value of public service careers under attack from DOGE. Democrats run the federal government. My critics/opponents disapprove of, if not despise, if not hate my getting the federal jobs and promotions that I did. I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969. They were furious when IRS promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and when GAO promoted me in 1986. According to my critics/opponents, Democrats should have gotten those jobs and promotions, and especially Democrats who are minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.

They blame their problems on what I have done as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000 and what I did as a leader of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2000-2012, Illinois Center Right Coalition 2003-2007, and Pat O’Malley’s Milton Township gubernatorial primary campaign 2001-2002. I should write about them.

— Sadly, there are far too many reasons to not help elect candidates. Far too often, the more that you do to help elect a candidate, if that candidate is defeated, you will be blamed for their defeat. I have done much to help elect Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000. I should write about those that have suffered defeats and that I have been blamed the most for their defeats. They blame what I have done as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000 and what I did as a leader of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2000-2012, Illinois Center Right Coalition 2003-2007, and Pat O’Malley’s Milton Township gubernatorial primary campaign 2001-2002.

— Trump Eliminates Another Vestige of Racial Discrimination— the Fraud of Disparate Impact. Of all the many tests that I have taken, fewer Blacks, Hispanics, and/or females a) took those tests than I did and b) fewer passed those tests than I did. According to my critics/opponents, that was because I benefitted from discrimination against Blacks, Hispanics, and/or females. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. The many tests that I took and pasted enabled me a) to earn a bachelor’s degree when I was 21 and master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination when I was 32, c) to get hired by the Post Office when I was 18, by IRS when I was 22, and by GAO when I was 31, and d) to get promoted by IRS when I was 23, 24, and 25 and by GAO when I was 38..

CHICAGO MAGAZINE
— The 10 Pols Who Could Replace Dick Durbin
https://www.chicagomag.com/chicago-magazine/february-2024/the-10-pols-who-could-replace-dick-durbin/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When U.S. senator Peter Fitzgerald announced his retirement in 2004, 16 candidates ran to succeed him. “Don’t you think it would be cool to be a senator?” one remarked. (Barack Obama, a state senator at the time, won — you might have heard of him.) . . . 5. Darin LaHood
The GOP will run a candidate, too, and LaHood is likely to be it. The last two times an Illinois Republican won a Senate race were 1998 and 2010 — nonpresidential years when a Democrat was in the White House, which seems to indicate that a Joe Biden reelection would help LaHood. (The Democrats also ran weak candidates those years.) Of the three Illinois Republicans in Congress, LaHood, elected to the House in 2015, is the most moderate. He’s from Peoria, which is Middle America personified. “He’s a guy who is politically disciplined and has not alienated the base,” says a conservative activist. “He can appeal to independents, too. He’s not a crazy MAGA.” Democrats would attack LaHood on abortion (he opposes) and voting with Trump on issues such as repealing Obamacare. He needs “to keep the race on economics and the lack of federal leadership, particularly with the border crisis,” the activist says.)

Mine came from my washing dishes, cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, pumping gasoline, delivering mail, and working on an automotive assemble line. The aforesaid enabled me to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charge SE. But my GPA suffered.

— In your county, township, municipality, school district, and precinct, how wany voted for Harris in the November 5, 2024 election and how many voted for Democrats in the April 1, 2025 election? If you are a registered Republican voter, what do those Democrat voters think of you? What do they blame you for? According to them, you put Trump in office. Democrat leaders and their mainstream news media ever-increasingly a) demonize, denigrate, and condemn Trump and everything that Trump says and does and b) hint/imply/argue/shout that local Democrats should punish local Republicans to punish Trump. If you are a Republican registered voter, anticipate/expect that local Democrats will ever-increasingly ostracize you if not take adverse actions against you. What are the following doing to defend/advance Trump: a) the leaders of your Republican township and county party organizations, b) the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, c) Republican elected officials in your area, and d) conservative and religious leaders and activists in your area? – Dave Diersen

DAILY HERALD
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG PICTURE: Democrat leaders crow about their success in defeating Republican township candidates. I should compare and contrast the eight Democrat Milton Township candidates who won with their eight Republican opponents who lost. For the April 1 election, what if Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders had promoted Trump’s policies as strongly as Democrat candidates, elected officials, and party leaders demonized, denigrated, and condemned Trump’s policies?
https://www.dailyherald.com/20250412/news/suburban-blue-wave-hits-township-races/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Suburban Democratic leaders say anger over the policies of President Donald Trump’s administration helped spur voters to action. “The best way to go against Trump and Musk is to put Democrats in office,” said Mark Guethle, chairman of the Democratic Party of Kane County. He said the township wins will help Democrats build a bench of candidates for future races for higher office. “Eventually, those people move up,” Guethle said. . .DuPage GOP leader Kevin Coyne said Republican candidates “ran good campaigns” but faced a “perfect storm of issues,” including an infusion of cash from the Democratic Party of Illinois to help bolster their candidates, the Trump factor, a demographic shift in the state as Republicans leave Illinois and being outpaced by Democrats in vote-by-mail ballots. . .McCollum, however, pointed to Election Day tallies and noted the majority of Democrats in contested races fared better when just looking at in-person Election Day vote tallies. He argued the bigger issue in the local races was Trump. . .Newly elected township officials plan to use these wins to focus on issues such as mental health care or other social assistance programs — services Democratic leaders fear may suffer under Trump’s administration.)
— Tariffs could cost them. They’re still standing by Trump. My standing by the Republican Party platform has cost me dearly. My critics/opponents reject some, many, most, virtually all, if not all the planks in the Republican Party platform.
