Two years ago this week, some QAnon clowns started a rumor that Pres. Biden was about to nominate me for Secretary of Education. They did this to fearmonger over the prospect of a trans woman running American public schools.

This was especially funny at the time because I have zero qualifications to be on my local school board, let alone lead the Department of Education.

Death threats. Doxxing. An avalanche of nasty messages. Delightful.

Fox News rather bizarrely took it seriously.

@charlotteclymer To be perfectly honest, I would trust you running the Dept. of Ed. far more than Betsy DeVos. You may not have expertise in public education administration or teaching, but you at least value it.
@NovaHellion @charlotteclymer literally anyone whose life hasn't been spent trying to destroy public education would be better than DeVos.
