Ex-Iowa Department of Human Services official Jerry Foxhoven may or may not have been fired due to his unwavering devotion to Tupac — but at least he now has new merch.
I suspect many Iowans now need Ipecac.
The feel-good political story of the, um, week. (aside from Omar’s welcome home in the Twin Cities last night.)
(A low bar, I know, but it’s the hand we’ve been dealt.)
Well, that and a retirement plan and he could declare victory.
'cause nothing says thug love like a retirement t-shirt…
This is a weird story, but it’s a good story and I like it.
…other than the fact that Foxhoven was forced to resign. That part isn’t good.

Two years ago, in what appeared to be the ongoing GOP campaign against state employees, the legislature passed and Gov. Reynold signed into law a provision that in the event of discipline, discharge, or retirement in lieu of discharge, the reason for that action would be public information. Gov. Reynolds has been asked, repeatedly, for the reasons for Foxhoven’s removal but thus far has provided nothing. She has said that there is no documentation to produce. He served as the head of the largest state agency for 2 years. Nothing to support his removal???
I’m guessing they wanted to make room for someone with seriously bad intentions.
