It bothers me as I feel she was fired do to her doing her job and sticking to her guns on what the correct thing to do given the data. FYI im on kbin and my notifications page is not working so I may not respond so well.

How do you calculate she did the correct thing based on data? She pushed to reopen schools during a time with some of the highest case and death counts recorded - https://blockclubchicago.org/2021/12/30/cps-will-return-to-in-person-learning-monday-despite-covid-surge-officials-say/

fyi, you posted that like 4 times in a row, the site is slow and sluggish, so it likely counted every click as a new post.

I liked the Tupac reference from Mayor Johnson.

“Transition is difficult for everyone,” Johnson said. “But as has already been articulated, I don’t know how many times you’re allowed to quote Tupac (Shakur) in a press conference, but ‘You can’t always go by the things that you hear.’ Right?_ ‘Real eyes…realize…real lies.’_ That’s also Tupac Shakur.”
