So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

On this, a note: DOJ filed a document Tuesday in E.D. Va. acknowledging that "the Acting U.S. Digital Service Administrator" is a defendant in a lawsuit. DOJ does not disclaim the existence of such a person, but DOJ also does not name the person or mention that role again in their brief.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

one of my favorite things about teaching my “bad mothers in literature” course is hearing that students call their mothers & talk to them about the material. on my good days I feel I’m helping facilitate the process of seeing your own mother as human for my students. this feels important.
