My Democrat GAO superiors got rid of the GAO manager who arranged for my transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986.)

— Let us know politics of news employees – Kristin Kocan, Warrenville
https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20180827/your-responses-to-enemy-of-the-people-editorials
(FROM THE LETTER: Responding to your editorial entitled, “Not enemies, but voice of the people,” please note that Pope Francis addressed the issue of “fake news” in a message for Communications, last January. How did he describe fake news? “The term ‘fake news’ has been the object of great discussion and debate. In general, it refers to the spreading of disinformation on line or in the traditional media. It has to do with false information based on non-existent or distorted data meant to deceive and manipulate the reader. Spreading fake news can serve to advance specific goals, influence political decisions, and serve economic interests.” He goes on to say “Disinformation thus thrives on the absence of healthy confrontation with other sources of information that could effectively challenge prejudices and generate constructive dialogue …” His whole message has to do with truth. However, your editorial did not mention truth; up front, it said it is the “voice of the people.” Well, which people? Maybe on your editorial page (one of many pages), you give half time to one side of an issue, half time to the other side (maybe). But for the rest of the pages, your paper is the voice of those in your employ. What is the ratio of Democrat to Republican in your employ? What is the ratio of Trump supporters to Trump haters in your employ? Let us know, and then we can decide if your paper is an enemy of people you don’t agree with …)
— Does $60,000 make you middle class or wealthy on Planet Earth? – Heather Long and Leslie Shapiro (DIERSEN: Are/were you wealthy? Because I have always been a Republican, because I avoided the draft, and because I am not a minority or a female, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being wealthy. They stressed the money that I spent on new cars, education, real estate, collector cars, etc. They stressed my wife’s income. They stressed that my wife and I did not have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. They stressed the money that we saved for our retirement. They were beyond furious when I got promoted in 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1986. They always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that because of the aforesaid, a) I did not need, nor should I be given, any promotions, b) I should be gotten rid of, and c) failing that, I should be forced to take early retirement.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kharas defines the middle class as people who have enough money to cover basics needs, such as food, clothing and shelter, and still have enough left over for a few luxuries, such as fancy food, a television, a motorbike, home improvements or higher education.)

— Illinois Pension Actuary Defrocked. Finally. – Mark Glennon (DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO and IRS superiors treated me like I had been defrocked by the organizations that had made me a Forensic Accountant in 1997, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, licensed CPA in 1981, Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, and CPA in 1979. They treated me like I had been defrocked by the universities that had granted me master’s degrees in finance in 1997, accounting in 1980, and business in 1976. They treated me like I had been defrocked by the university that granted me a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970.

Those who give me the silent treatment a) reject planks in the Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform and work against those like me who support those planks, b) reject the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling and work against those like me who support that resolution, c) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, d) were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed, and/or e) are operatives or dupes for the aforesaid. I should write a book about the aforesaid who religiously read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails to get information to destroy me and to destroy anyone who might come to my defense.)

They blame me for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. They blame me for every defeat that Republicans have suffered in Illinois since 2000.

— Quotation of the day on self-interest – Mark J. Perry (DIERSEN: QUESTION: What do you say to turncoats, traitors, defectors, deserters, and betrayers? Why do people work against their own self-interests, that is, why do people work against those who share their own demographics? ANSWER: Most commonly, it is because they see the future of those who share their demographics as being lost, and they want to curry favor with those who are getting rid of those who share their demographics. I should write a book about those in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who work against those who share their own demographics. I should write about those who claim to be Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, and/or Republican, but who work against those like me who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, and/or Republican. I should write about those who are White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time, but who work against those like me who are White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
