— Northwestern University announced hundreds of layoffs, citing ‘mounting financial pressure’ on Tuesday. Because of Gingrich-led budget cuts, GAO shrank from more than 6,000 employees down to less than 3,000. The agency was almost always under hiring freezes and/or promotion freezes. The Democrats who ran GAO were beyond furious about that. They took their anger against Gingrich out against me, one of the few remaining Republican employees in the agency. They wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old.

— Trump pick Emil Bove confirmed as federal judge after furious Democrat walkout, whistleblower complaint. GAO would not have promoted me to GS-13 when I was 38 years old in 1986 if the GAO manager (Dave) who led the effort to get rid of me had not gone on extended sick leave. That finally allowed the GAO manager (Bill) who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980 to assign me to audits of IRS in 1986 and to promote me in 1986. But Dave a) came back in 1987, b) forced Bill to resign in 1987, c) threw me off audits of IRS in late 1988, d) gave me a bad job assignment in 1989, e) gave me unfair performance expectations in 1989, f) gave me an unfair performance appraisal in 1989, g) ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance (PFP) in 1989, h) assured that I would always be ranked in the bottom half of my coworkers for PFP for the rest of my GAO career, i) assured that I would never again be assigned to audits of IRS, and j) forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. I should write about the aforesaid.

U.S. OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
— Merit Hiring Plan. For Democrats, the federal government exists to hire, retain, and promote Democrats. 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 wasted my career and they got rid of me because I refused to become a Democrat.
https://www.dcpas.osd.mil/sites/default/files/2025-05/Merit%20Hiring%20Plan%205-29-2025.pdf
(FROM THE MEMORANDUM: The American people deserve a Federal workforce dedicated to American values and efficient service. Yet, Federal hiring criteria long ago abandoned any serious need for technical skills and adherence to the Constitution. Instead, the overly complex Federal hiring system overemphasized discriminatory “equity” quotas and too often resulted in the hiring of unfit, unskilled bureaucrats. The American people, who deserve a government that works for them, have suffered. In his January 20, 2025 Executive Order 14170, Reforming the Federal Hiring Process and Restoring Merit to Government Service (“Restoring Merit”) President Trump directed that “recruitment and hiring processes” become “more efficient and focused on serving the Nation” and that hiring be based on “merit, practical skill, and dedication to our Constitution.” These changes will “ensure that the Federal workforce is prepared to help achieve American greatness, and attract the talent necessary to serve our citizens effectively.” President Trump directed the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy to “develop and send to agency heads a Federal Hiring Plan that brings to the Federal workforce only highly capable Americans dedicated to the furtherance of American ideals, values, and interests.” President Trump stated that this Merit Hiring Plan must achieve seven goals: 1. Prioritize recruitment of individuals committed to improving the efficiency of the Federal government, passionate about the ideals of our American republic, and committed to upholding the rule of law and the United States Constitution; 2. Prevent the hiring of individuals based on their race, sex, or religion, and prevent the hiring of individuals who are unwilling to defend the Constitution or to faithfully serve the Executive Branch; . . . Finally, the Merit Hiring Plan must provide specific best practices for the human resources (HR) function in each agency, which each agency head shall implement. These HR best practices are included as Appendix 1.2 The key elements of the following Merit Hiring Plan are: 1. Reforming the Federal recruitment process to ensure that only the most talented, capable and patriotic Americans are hired to the Federal service; 2. Implementing skills-based hiring, eliminating unnecessary degree requirements, and requiring the use of rigorous, job-related assessments to ensure candidates are selected based on their merit and competence, not their skin color or academic pedigree;)
