— Voters say news media protects Biden – Jennifer Harper
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who expect/demand that I protect them. I would focus on those who have been Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their major donors, their political consultants, their fundraisers, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers. I would focus on those who have taken adverse actions against me because I have included links in my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters to articles that they do not like. I would focus on those who blame and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. Better yet, I should sue them.)

PATRIOT POST
— We Welcome the Wokeness Whistleblowers A congressman and a senator, both veterans, invited their military brothers to speak out about Team Biden’s efforts to indoctrinate. – DOUGLAS ANDREWS
(DIERSEN: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and the Post Office 1966-1969 and then when I filed Diersen v. GAO in 1998, I blew the whistle big time on political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. But my Republican Senators and Representatives and their staff members did not want to hear that. They acted like they rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform. They acted like they supported up-or-out, that is, they acted like they supported age discrimination.)

ACCURACY IN MEDIA
— Media’s playbook on border crisis: blame Trump – John Ransom
(DIERSEN: Since 2005, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs have complained about Republicans helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. This year, they succeeded in ending that sponsorship. If Wheaton’s Independence Day Parade this year has fewer entries, has fewer quality entries, and/or has fewer viewers and if Wheaton’s Independence Day Fireworks this year have fewer vendors and/or fewer viewers, who will be blamed? Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs have always complained about Republicans helping sponsor the parade and fireworks. I should write a book about the lead complainers.)

ILLINOIS CPA SOCIETY
— A CPA Pipeline Report: Decoding the Decline
(DIERSEN: In 1979, when I was 30 years old, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. In 1981, I became a licensed CPA. I should write a book about those who have belittled the aforesaid the most. I would focus on my Democrat and GAO supervisors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates. I would focus on Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders of the following: Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter. I would focus on Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their major donors, their political consultants, their fundraisers, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their volunteers.)
https://www.icpas.org/information/professional-issues/decoding-the-decline
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earning the CPA credential has historically been one of the most notable ways to establish a professional identity and exhibit a high level of competence in the accounting profession, yet we are witnessing a nationwide decline in not just new CPAs but also accounting program enrollments.
With input from various regional and national stakeholders, we developed a survey targeted toward accounting students, graduates, and professionals under the age of 35—including CPAs and non-CPAs—with the aim of gaining insight into what is truly driving the decline in individuals pursuing the CPA credential and understanding why so many accounting students and young professionals either do not finish the CPA exam or never take it at all. In this eye-opening 2021 Insight Special Feature, the Illinois CPA Society shares its survey findings, decoding the decline of new CPAs by revealing the real reasons accounting students, graduates, and young professionals are not pursuing the CPA credential like they used to.)
