I appreciate your suggestion”. I got dozens of texts immediately following the posting of the tweet from people lending me their support and horror about what he is suggesting. Interesting that he told me yesterday that he is not going to fire me. Many kids dressed up as me for their Halloween costumes: Nice talk with Marc Short today. He is totally supportive as is (as he says) the VP. I continue to get dozens of e-mails and texts of support from all over the world. The press is all over this. Rosa DeLauro just called me and said: “We all love you. Fuck him. There is no way in the world we are going to let him fire you.” PRESS: Multiple stories running now about the threat to fire me.

White House (meadows) clais that Washington Post (Dawsey) told him that I initiated the interview from Friday. NOIT SO!!! E-mail below is self-explanatory: Brian: As per our recent telephone conversation, let me summarize. Francis Collins called me this afternoon after his regularly scheduled meeting with the Secretary. Apparently, the Secretary is under the impression (someone related this to him) that I initiated the interview with the Washington Post that is now so controversial. That is categorically incorrect and I have proof of that. The e-mail below indicate that the reporter Josh Dawsey reached out to me for an interview (e-mail below dated October 29, 2020 at 11:48 AM). I did what I always do and requested clearance. The e-mails below show that this occurred and I was cleared to speak with him. I would like very much to clear up this misunderstanding that I reached out to the reporter, which I absolutely did not. Please read the e-mail chain from bottom up. Many thanks.
