CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Citizens of Mexico and of other Spanish-speaking countries crow over their success in conquering America. Soon, if not already, it will be all but impossible for citizens of America to get an education, to get a job, to get elected, to etc. unless they a) speak, read, and write Spanish and b) serve as operatives or as dupes for Mexico and for other Spanish-speaking countries and their citizens. There are tremendous conflicts between the values of citizens of foreign countries and the values of Americans. Democrats side with foreign countries and with their citizens against America and against its citizens. Democrats make it clear to illegals that Democrats use government to give preference to illegals, and especially to those who are minority, female, and/or younger. Democrats shout at foreign countries and at their citizens that Republicans are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of. Constructively, Democrats have declared war on Republicans. Democrats count on foreign countries and their citizens to get rid of Republicans once and for all.)

— In a foreign aid agency, Trump loyalists replace development experts – Robert O’Harrow Jr. (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always promoted patronage. Because I have always been a Republican, were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/politics/ct-mcc-trump-loyalists-appointed-20180728-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a statement to The Post, Menendez condemned the administration’s “practice of replacing seasoned professional and programmatic experts with patronage hires.” He said that “blind loyalty seemingly trumps qualifications, experience and career public servants.” “Congress gave MCC special hiring authority so that it could operate with efficiency and effectiveness, not so that it could become a dumping ground for unqualified partisan loyalists and lackeys,” Menendez wrote. A Republican Foreign Relations Committee aide speaking on the condition of anonymity offered a more upbeat assessment. “We were happy to work with our Democratic counterparts in resolving questions about hiring at MCC as we do regularly in exercising the committee’s oversight function,” the aide said. “Such oversight is important for all agencies under the committee’s jurisdiction, and we will continue working in a bipartisan manner moving forward.”)
— No longer lonely on the bench, Latino judges in Illinois form an association – Mary Schmich (DIERSEN: From what I see, beyond outrageously, and beyond unacceptably, those in Illinois like me who are Republican Precinct Committeemen/Captains to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) platform are a minority and are very lonely. Should I form an “Illinois Republican Precinct Committeemen/Captains Association” with a structure similar to the “Illinois Republican County Chairmen’s Association?” Membership would be open only to those Republican Precinct Committeemen/Captains in Illinois who have demonstrated that they help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance the IRP platform and are NOT a) Democrat plants, b) Libertarian plants, c) green plants, or d) RINOs.)

In my defense, I worked for GAO for almost 18 years 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which, at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $96,403-$125,325. Much of what I did for GAO is similar to what journalists do – interviewing, conducting surveys, gathering facts, summarizing facts, analyzing facts, and writing reports. Two of the GAO reports that I worked on are at http://www.gao.gov/assets/160/154342.pdf(FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES: Actions Needed to Protect the Financial System) and at http://www.gao.gov/assets/160/156011.pdf (OTC DERIVATIVES: Additional Oversight Could Reduce Costly Sales Practice Disputes).)

— Average daily wage for Mexicans in the U.S. is 62 USD, while in Mexico it’s only 16.72 USD (DIERSEN: What have you done to qualify yourself for better paying jobs? Even though my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being STUPID AND LAZY, I nevertheless was able to earn 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.

NURSE
— New York To Pay Nurses $20 Million In Gender Bias Settlement – Chaunie Brusie (DIERSEN: BECAUSE OF EEOC, I became a federal employee. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, I accepted IRS’s job offer BECAUSE OLDSMOBILE WITHDREW A JOB OFFER THAT I HAD ACCEPTED SAYING THAT IT HAD JUST AGREED TO STOP HIRING WHITES TO SETTLE AN EEOC COMPLAINT.)
https://nurse.org/articles/new-york-city-pays-settlement-to-nurses-lawsuit/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Now, however, New York City is paying out $20.6 million dollars thanks to a class-action lawsuit with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) that ultimately found that the pension plan was gender discriminatory towards male-oriented professions, leaving out nursing because it has traditionally been a female-majority led form of work. The EEOC determined that nursing requires a high threshold for physical requirements, with injury rates, illness and physical strain in general being one of the highest of any profession.)
